Compliance, Done Right.
CPD registered provider 22536

Subscribe on any date. All 18 courses are open to you.

Your membership runs to the last day of the same calendar month next year, so it always covers one full sitting of every course, this cycle or the next. Choose any 6. Live online and tutor-led, €997 a year excl VAT, or €465 for a single course.

The promise, in one paragraph

Auren Institute runs 18 live online CPD short courses on a teaching cycle that runs from October to June each year. Every course runs once per cycle and keeps the same calendar month every year. Your annual subscription begins on the day you subscribe and ends on the last day of that same calendar month in the following year. Because of that, every one of the 18 courses has a sitting inside your membership period whatever date you join, and you choose any 6 of them. Some of your six may sit in the current cycle and some in the next. Both count.

How your membership works

Four rules, and no small print behind them.

Rule 1

Subscribe on any date

No intake window and no waiting for September. No pro-rated price and no late-joiner discount either, because nobody joins late. A March subscriber and an October subscriber get the same 18 courses to choose from and pay the same €997.

Rule 2

Your membership period

It begins on the day you subscribe and ends on the last day of the same calendar month in the following year. Subscribe on 15 March 2027 and your membership runs to 31 March 2028.

Rule 3

All 18 stay open

Each course runs once per cycle, always in the same calendar month. Cybersecurity Awareness is always May. Compliance Essentials is always October. If the sitting you want has already run this cycle, take it in the next one. It is inside your membership either way.

Rule 4

Nominate your 6, and change your mind

Nominate your six at any point in your membership period. You do not have to decide on day one. You can change a selection up to 14 days before that sitting begins, subject to availability on the course you move to.

If a sitting does not run: a course runs when at least 3 learners are enrolled in that sitting in total. If the only sitting of a course you selected inside your membership period is cancelled or postponed, we carry your place to the next sitting and extend your membership period so the course stays available to you at no extra cost.

What this looks like in practice

Four different join dates. The same 18 courses to choose from in every one.

The number in the right-hand column does not change, because the calendar was built so that it cannot.

Funding

Malta-based employers may recover part of the training cost through JobsPlus Investing in Skills. It is evaluated case by case, and approval is never guaranteed.

JobsPlus Investing in Skills (employers)

Employers can co-fund approved training costs through JobsPlus Investing in Skills. Apply online, one application per completed course, at least 7 calendar days before the start date. See our employer page for the full detail. Scheme details.

Timing your application

Because every course has a sitting inside your membership period, you can time an application to whichever sitting gives you the 7 clear days the scheme requires, rather than rushing the next one on the calendar.

Please note: JobsPlus assesses every application individually and approval is never guaranteed, so we do not promise a net price.

Common questions

Can I subscribe at any time of year?
Yes. There is no intake window. Your membership begins on the day you subscribe and ends on the last day of that same calendar month in the following year, and all 18 courses have a sitting inside that period.
Which of the 18 courses can I choose from?
All of them. Every course runs once per cycle in the same calendar month each year, so whatever date you subscribe, your membership period contains one sitting of each of the 18. You choose any 6.
What if the course I want has already run this cycle?
You take it in the next cycle, and it still counts towards your 6. Courses keep the same calendar month year to year, so a course that ran in November 2026 runs again in November 2027.
When does my membership start and end?
It starts the day you subscribe. It ends on the last day of the same calendar month in the following year. Subscribe on 15 March 2027 and your membership runs to 31 March 2028.
When do I have to choose my 6, and can I change them?
Nominate your 6 at any point in your membership period. You do not have to decide on day one. You can change a selection up to 14 days before that sitting begins, subject to availability on the course you move to.
What happens if a course does not run?
A course runs when at least 3 learners are enrolled in that sitting in total, counting learners across everyone booked, not from a single organisation. If the only sitting of a course you selected inside your membership period is cancelled or postponed, we carry your place to the next sitting and extend your membership period so the course stays available to you at no extra cost.
How does the annual subscription work?
The annual subscription is 997 euro per year, excl VAT, and covers any 6 of the 18 courses across your membership period, drawn from either cycle. The 6 courses are per person and are not transferable to someone else. You can spread the cost at 99.70 euro per month on a 12-month commitment.
How much does a single course cost?
A single course is 465 euro, excl VAT, covering the four live sessions, materials, the assignment and the Auren Certificate. Any 6 courses are available on the annual subscription at 997 euro per year.
Is the programme accredited, and what certificate do I get?
Auren Institute is a CPD-registered provider (registration 22536). We are always accrediting new courses. Every course is quality assured and reviewed periodically by internal and external auditors, delivered only by highly qualified lecturers and practitioners, and on completion you receive the Auren Certificate.
How are the courses delivered?
Live online and tutor-led. Each course is 4 sessions of 1.5 hours, from 09:30 to 11:00 CET, with a 1,500-word assignment. Set aside about 50 learning hours in total across the course, of which 10 are lesson hours.
What level are the courses, and what do I need?
Intermediate level, suited to professionals with some workplace experience. A minimum of 2 years working experience, or 1 A Level and 5 O Levels, is preferable. You need a working command of English and a computer with a stable internet connection.
How am I assessed?
Assessment is a 1,500-word written assignment, completed in your own time after the sessions. Pass the assignment and you earn the Auren Certificate.
Is funding available?
Yes. Malta-based employers can co-fund approved training costs through JobsPlus Investing in Skills. Applications are subject to eligibility and approval.
Can I pay in instalments?
The annual subscription can be spread at 99.70 euro per month on a 12-month commitment. For a single course at 465 euro, ask us about instalment options.
