Do I need any prerequisites?
There are no formal prerequisites. Knowing the fundamentals of ISO 27001 helps, but it is not required.
What language is the exam in?
The official PECB material and exam for this course are available in the languages shown on this page. Coaching is delivered in English to prepare you thoroughly. If you need a specific language, contact us and we will confirm it.

The PECB exam includes 2 attempts: the first plus a free retake usable within the following 12 months. So a failure doesn't leave you stranded. What's more, with the coaching option we prepare for the exam together with mock exams so that you arrive with confidence.
