Become an ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Implementer

Learn to lead the implementation of an information security management system in accordance with ISO/IEC 27001:2022 – from initial planning to the certification audit. Combitech delivers the training as an authorized PECB partner with a certified PECB trainer, and the course concludes with the PECB certification exam.

Course description

Threats to organizations’ information are constantly growing, and customers, legislators and other stakeholders are placing increasingly stringent demands on how information is protected. This course gives you both the knowledge and practical skills to implement, maintain and continually improve an ISMS in accordance with ISO/IEC 27001, using PECB’s IMS2 methodology and other proven approaches.

The course is led by a certified PECB trainer from Combitech, using PECB’s official course material and examples from Combitech’s information security and compliance assignments. You will work through exercises, case studies and scenario-based quizzes – focusing not only on what the standard requires, but on how to put it into practice.
