For example, if you've activated a six month subscription to a training benefit as part of an Enterprise subscription, and your Visual Studio subscription is downgraded to Visual Studio Professional, you'll still have any remaining time on the training subscription.

If you have activated them prior to any changes in your subscription level, many of them will be unaffected and will remain available to you until the end of their normal term. Many of the benefits provided by our partners are offers that have a fixed length. The effects of changing subscription levels on other benefits can vary widely.
