Credential eligibility and the certification decision are assessed by PECB. Training does not certify your organisation. - **Format:** Open-book, essay-type questions — written answers, not multiple choice - **Duration:** 3 hours - **Questions:** 12 essay-type questions worth 75 points in total, across 7 competency domains — fundamental principles and concepts of an energy management system (1 question, 5 points), the energy management system itself (1 question, 5 points), fundamental audit concepts and principles (2 questions, 10 points), preparing an ISO 50001 audit (2 questions, 15 points), conducting an ISO 50001 audit (4 questions, 25 points — the heaviest domain, a third of the paper), closing an ISO 50001 audit (1 question, 10 points), and managing an ISO 50001 audit programme (1 question, 5 points) - **Pass mark:** 70% PECB credential ladder: Provisional Auditor (no experience required) → Auditor (two years of professional experience, one in energy management, plus 200 hours of audit activity) → Lead Auditor (five years, two in energy management, plus 300 hours) → Senior Lead Auditor (ten years, seven in energy management, plus 1,000 hours). PECB Certified ISO 50001 Master additionally requires both the Lead Implementer and Lead Auditor credentials, four further Foundation exams, and fifteen years of experience. All tiers require signing the PECB Code of Ethics. Provisional credentials are exempt from maintenance; other tiers follow the applicable CPD and fee requirements. **Before you enrol: prerequisites** A fundamental understanding of ISO 50001 and comprehensive knowledge of audit principles — PECB’s published prerequisite for this course. Prior completion of ISO 50001 Foundation or another management system audit course helps, though it is not mandatory. From knowledge to a working decision ## Energy use rises while production changes Separate changes in activity from possible performance changes. Identify relevant measurements, assumptions and evidence before claiming an improvement. 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 catalogue](https://help.pecb.com/list-of-pecb-courses/) Make time for the learning ## Your course. Your study plan. 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.

Check the applicable experience, references and application requirements; do not assume a Lead title is awarded automatically.

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. ## Choose the right course for your role. Tell us what you need to achieve, what is in scope and where you are starting.
