Where it fits in the US
Why US organisations ask for it
Most US ISO 27001 projects start because an international or enterprise customer asked for the certificate, often alongside a SOC 2 report the organisation already holds. The work runs beside the NIST Cybersecurity Framework many US security programmes are built on, and beside state privacy laws such as California's CCPA. This course certifies you as an implementer. The organisation is certified separately, by an accredited certification body, typically ANAB-accredited in the US, after a Stage 1 and Stage 2 audit.

Frequently asked questions
Does the price include the PECB exam?
Yes. US$589 covers the official PECB eLearning, the exam voucher, remote proctoring, and the certification fee. There are no separate exam fees.
How many exam attempts are included?
Two. Your first sitting is included, and if you do not pass you can resit free within 12 months.
Are there any additional fees?
Not from us. US$589 is the total charged at checkout, in US dollars, and nothing is added on top. The one ongoing cost is PECB's own Annual Maintenance Fee of USD 120, which keeps the credential active. Your first year is already included in the course price, so that fee starts in year two and is paid to PECB directly.
How long does the course take?
Most people finish in 30 to 40 hours, spread across two to four weeks. It is the eLearning equivalent of a five day classroom course, and you have 12 months of access.
What is the exam format?
A 3-hour, 80-question, open-book exam delivered online with remote proctoring. You book it through myPECB at a date and time that suits you.
Should I take Lead Implementer or Lead Auditor?
Lead Implementer if you are building or running the ISMS, Lead Auditor if you are assessing someone else’s. Consultants often hold both. They are the same price here, and both include the exam voucher and two attempts.
Is the certification recognised in the US?
Yes. PECB is an international certification body and the credential is the same certificate wherever you sit the exam. US employers and procurement teams recognise ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Implementer as the implementation credential for the standard.
Do I need implementation experience before I enrol?
No. You can sit the exam without it. Experience decides your credential level afterwards: Provisional Implementer needs none, while Implementer, Lead Implementer and Senior Lead Implementer add work experience and project hours on the same exam result.
Is a copy of the ISO 27001 standard included?
No, and you do not need it to complete the course or pass the exam. ISO/IEC 27001 is a licensed document, so if you want your own copy you buy it from iso.org or the ANSI Webstore.
Who am I buying from?
Mindset Cyber, an authorised PECB training partner based in Australia. The course, the materials and the exam are PECB’s own and are identical wherever you enrol. You are charged in US dollars and supported by email.
