Yes, Autodesk has a program where the unemployed can download the software to learn a new job skill.
It appears that there are still some issues to be worked out with their process for this year
If you are a school team, just have the teacher (with the .edu email address) add you to the list of students. However, that does not work for a non-school (or non-US) team.
Someone who is actively having this problem probably needs to take this issue up directly with FIRST HQ to get it resolved.
