A subscription allows EthosCE to sell a product that awards the purchaser a role for a specified period of time. The course or site admin can then give each course a "subscriber" role-based price, which allows for a reduced or free piceprice. Roles are created by the EthosCE implementation team when the add-on is enabled. Your role may be named "subscriber" or may have a different name, depending on what you specified during implementation.
