Before you begin

A few useful answers.

Are the free courses really free?

Yes. Every course marked free is free to enrol on and stays free, and each one still carries a Certificate of Completion. There is no trial, no card and no upgrade needed to finish it.

Which pathway should I choose?

Choose by what has changed, not by what you want to become. If it is your work or your role, start with Life and Role Change. If you are leaving or have left a long structured career, start with After Service. If the work has ended and the purpose it carried has gone with it, start with Purpose and What Next. If the change came through someone else's role, start with Family and Belonging.

What if my situation is not one of the five pathways?

Then take the courses in whichever order suits you. A pathway is a suggested order rather than a requirement, every course has its own page, and the free courses are a sensible place to begin.

How much do the paid courses cost?

Three courses are permanently free: Introduction to AURIS, Controlling the Controllables and Five-Day Reset. Other published courses are individually priced by depth and scope. Every paid course is a one-time purchase with lifetime access, including future research driven updates.

Do I need an account?

No. Eligible free lessons can be started without an account. Create a free learner account only when you want AURIS to save your course journey, let you return across devices, issue a named certificate, or send the course-service reminders you choose. Saving progress is separate from optional marketing and research consent.

Are the courses self-paced?

Study at your own pace, with lessons opening in sequence after the previous lesson is completed. Five-Day Reset also has a twenty-four-hour wait after each completed lesson. Lessons include activities and saved reflections; some courses also require portfolio evidence and an assessment. The course and lesson pages explain the required work.

Is this therapy or counselling?

No. AURIS courses are education. They are not therapy, clinical treatment or a substitute for medical or mental health care, and they make no promise about employment or recovery.

What is the difference between a course and the Practitioner Certification?

A course gives you a Certificate of Completion for your own learning. The AURIS Practitioner Certification is separate, professional, and assessed, and it is for people who want to work with others using the framework.

Academy courses and AURIS Membership

AURIS Academy and AURIS Membership are separate products. Academy paid courses are one-time purchases with lifetime access. AURIS Membership is the £9.99 monthly ongoing experience delivered in the AURIS Identity app at aurisidentity.com. You can use either on its own; buying an Academy course does not create an app subscription, and app membership does not buy Academy courses.
