People behind the recorded lessons
PECB names these presenters in its English eLearning brochure, checked 18 October 2026. These are recorded lessons, not Aegentra staff profiles or a booking with a live trainer. The line-up can change with the language or course edition.

Self-Study is independent learning from the official materials. eLearning, where listed, adds recorded instruction; neither standard bundle promises live tuition or unlimited one-to-one support. For the listed ISO 27001 and ISO 42001 courses, the separately quoted consultancy option is explained above. PECB manages examination and certification decisions.
Knowledge you can apply
Inside the course
Modules describe the learning sequence. Day labels in the official curriculum do not mean scheduled live classes.
The exam and credential
Credential eligibility and the certification decision are assessed by PECB. Training does not certify your organisation.
PECB credential ladder: Provisional Auditor (no experience) → Auditor (2 years, 1 in business continuity, 200 audit hours) → Lead Auditor (5 years, 2 in business continuity, 300 audit hours) → Senior Lead Auditor (10 years, 7 in business continuity, 1,000 audit hours). Taught against ISO 19011 and ISO/IEC 17021-1. All tiers require signing the PECB Code of Ethics.
From knowledge to a working decision
Identify dependencies and business consequences, propose recovery priorities and explain what an exercise must demonstrate rather than simply listing backup tools.
For an audit-focused route, write a criterion, evidence request, possible finding and limitation; do not reach a conclusion without the necessary evidence.
Original optional study prompt, not an official PECB exam question, an additional included lab or evidence of professional experience. Use fictional information.
Check the official PECB course catalogueMake time for the learning
Turn the curriculum into a study plan: record your target dates, explain each topic in your own words and keep a list of questions to revisit. The downloadable sheet is pre-filled for this course and includes space for your notes. It is an optional Aegentra planning aid, not official PECB materials, an exam-question bank or evidence of professional experience. Use fictional examples, not confidential workplace information.

PECB online-exam manualPassing the exam and being awarded a particular credential are separate steps. Check the applicable experience, references and application requirements; do not assume a Lead title is awarded automatically.
PECB certification requirementsFor permitted materials, exam conduct and accommodation requests, read PECB’s exam rules. Requirements can change; check the current rules for your exact exam.
Your questions
Yes. Each listed bundle includes the official examination voucher: an initial attempt and one free retake if needed. Complete the exam, included retake and application within 12 months of purchase. The first retake requires at least 15 days after an unsuccessful attempt. PECB reviews eligibility before awarding a credential; buying a bundle does not guarantee certification.
Self-Study provides official slides for independent study. eLearning adds recorded PECB video lectures. Only the formats shown above are offered for this course.
The bundle includes the application fee and first-year maintenance where applicable. Foundation certificates have no annual maintenance fee. Credential eligibility and ongoing requirements vary; PECB makes the award decision.
Choose your course and learning format, review the total in your selected currency and pay securely through Stripe. PECB access is arranged within 24 hours after payment confirmation. Optional Labs access is activated for the matching course after confirmation.
Compare the exact awarding body and credential, curriculum, delivery format, exam inclusion, retake conditions, access period and eligibility. Similar course titles do not establish equivalence to another provider or scheme. These are PECB bundles; no CQI and IRCA, IAPP, EC-Council or Linux Foundation credential is implied.
No. It is the material-access period, not a scheduled course duration or a promise of unlimited instructor support. The listed bundles are self-paced. Curriculum day labels describe a learning sequence; they are not booked live classroom dates.
Confirm the exact course edition and current PECB syllabus before enrolment, especially where a standard is being revised. Publication of a newer standard does not automatically update a training bundle or include a transition course. Confirm the course edition with the Academy before payment.
