Certificate Validity: As the DISARM Framework is a community-driven tool that is constantly developing, the certificate remains valid for a period of time determined by the DISARM Foundation, and can be updated with brief and accessible refresher courses.

Read the full terms & conditions for the DISARM Courses here.

For any questions, you can email our team at info@alliance4europe.eu

Update on Refresher Courses (2025): The DISARM training team at Alliance4Europe works in close collaboration with the DISARM development team at the DISARM Foundation. This means that the trainings will always have the latest information on the framework and its uses. At this time, the training team has identified that there have not yet been substantive changes to require a refresher course.

This means all certificates issued since February 2024 remain valid until further notice (extending the initial 1-year validity of the certificate). For Certified Analysts who would like to receive a certificate with an updated validity date on the certificate, please feel welcome to reach out to info@alliance4europe.eu.
