The PECB ISO 27001 Lead Auditor agenda runs five days. Day one introduces the ISMS and ISO/IEC 27001, day two covers audit principles, preparation and initiation, day three covers on-site audit activities, and day four covers audit closure. Day five is the certification exam. Attendees earn 31 CPD credits.
The agenda follows an audit from start to finish, which is useful because you learn the order in which an auditor thinks.
Day by day
- Day 1: the ISMS and an introduction to ISO/IEC 27001.
- Day 2: audit principles, preparing for the audit and initiating it.
- Day 3: on-site audit activities.
- Day 4: audit closure.
- Day 5: the certification exam.
Who it suits
Internal auditors, implementers who want to see their ISMS as an auditor would, consultants and professionals moving into audit work. There is no experience needed to attend beyond a fundamental understanding of ISO/IEC 27001 and knowledge of audit principles. The experience ladder applies to the credential and is in Lead Auditor prerequisites and experience.
Practitioner note: Bring an ISMS you know, your own or one you support. Applying each day's topic to it makes the exam scenarios much easier to reason about.
