Frequently asked questions

Do I need any prerequisites?
No formal prerequisites are required. A basic familiarity with ISO 27001 (for example the Foundation level) is recommended, but not mandatory.
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.
What is the difference between Self-Study and Self-Study + Coaching?
Self-Study gives you the official material, the exam and the certification so you can progress at your own pace. The coaching option adds one-to-one sessions with me, real-world case studies and guided exam preparation: I support you until you feel ready to get certified. The coaching option includes up to 3 hours of one-to-one video sessions, spread at your own pace over the 12 months of access. See the full coaching programme.
What if I don't pass the exam?
The PECB exam includes 2 attempts: the first plus a free retake usable within the following 12 months. A failure therefore 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.
Is it useful for NIS2?
Yes. ISO 27001 covers a very significant part of the NIS2 requirements (risk management, incidents, continuity, access control). It's the best starting point while we prepare the dedicated NIS2 course.
