IBM SPSS Version 28 Installation and Registration
These instructions apply to students and part-time faculty. Full-time faculty and staff who use Walden issued computers are required to download SPSS from the Company Portal and open
a ServiceNow request for assistance with licensing. The following set of instructions will walk you through installing IBM SPSS Statistics on your computer. Version 28 is compatible with all supported Windows operating systems (Windows 7 and newer).
We suggest that you first obtain the SPSS license code before you begin downloading SPSS.
Students can obtain the SPSS license code from this link: https://alaureatena.sharepoint.com/sites/walden-university/student- documents/spss/Pages/default.aspx
Faculty can obtain the SPSS license code from this link: https://dvi.sharepoint.com/sites/walden-faculty-spss
You may be prompted to enter your Office 365 credentials.
Simply copy and paste the code into a Word document so that you have it available when prompted to enter it at the end of the installation sequence. You can always enter the code later; however, having it on hand to enter during the installation is much easier.
SPSS v28 Windows 64-bit install - https://cdn- media.waldenu.edu/2dett4d/software/IBM/SPSS/v28/SSC64- bit_28.0.1.0Win_ML.exe
This installation requires at least 1GB of free space on your computer. Because of the large size of the installation file, it is recommended that you are on a DSL or better internet connection. Even with a strong internet connection, the installation may still take up to 30 minutes or longer. While the tool is installing, you may continue to work within other applications on your computer.
If you are using a Mac operating system, you may follow these instructions.
Note: Java Runtime Environment must be installed on your computer in order for SPSS to run. If you experience any issues with SPSS or if you are prompted, you may install Java SE Runtime Environment 7u45 from the Oracle website.

When prompted, save the file in the desired location on your computer. (Note: Depending on your browser, this screen may look a little different.) This step may take up to about 20 minutes if you are on a 128 Kbps internet connection. Once the file has been saved, run the file.
Run the file by double-clicking on it from where it was saved.
If you receive a security warning, click Run (or Yes).
The install wizard will appear. Read through and accept the License Agreement and then click Next.
Accept the terms of the license agreement.
