    PECB courses have no additional voluntary cancellation refund. This does not remove statutory rights. Labs has the separate 10-day guarantee.

    Which learning support is included?

    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.

    After passing, apply to PECB for Provisional Risk Manager (no professional or project experience threshold) or Risk Manager (two years of professional experience, including one in information-security risk management, and 200 hours of related activity). The current course page and candidate handbook do not offer a Senior tier from this examination. PECB validates the application and requires its Code of Ethics. Provisional credentials are maintenance-exempt; Risk Manager has the applicable maintenance fees and 60 CPD hours per three-year cycle.

    Before you enrol: prerequisites
    • A fundamental understanding of ISO/IEC 27005 and comprehensive knowledge of risk assessment and information security.
    • Prior ISO 27001 exposure is helpful — the course teaches risk assessment in the context of an ISMS.

    From knowledge to a working decision

    A critical account could be misused

    Identify the information assets and business consequences, explain assessment assumptions and compare treatment options without claiming a score eliminates uncertainty.

    For an implementation or practitioner route, record a decision, owner, evidence requirement and review trigger. Explain your assumptions and what remains outside the exercise.

    Original optional study prompt, not an official PECB exam question, an additional included lab or evidence of professional experience. Use fictional information.

    Before you book the exam.

    Check your exact exam

    Confirm the course, exam language, duration and permitted materials against PECB’s current exam listing and rules. Similar titles from different training providers can lead to different qualifications.

    Prepare your exam environment

    Before booking, check the latest online-exam manual for identification, equipment, connectivity and room requirements. Ask PECB about reasonable accommodations early if you need them.

    PECB online-exam manual
    Plan the credential application

    Passing 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 requirements

    For 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

    Before you choose.

    Is the official PECB exam included?

    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.

    What is the difference between Self-Study and eLearning?

    Self-Study provides official slides for independent study. eLearning adds recorded PECB video lectures. Only the formats shown above are offered for this course.

    Does this include a certification fee?

    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.

    Can I purchase online?

    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.

    How does this PECB bundle compare with other UK training offers?

    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.

    Does 12-month access mean 12 months of teaching?

    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.

    Which standard edition or syllabus should I check?

    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.
