Where it fits in the US
Why US organisations ask for it
US boards and buyers are asking how AI is governed, and ISO/IEC 42001 is the international standard that answers it with a certifiable management system. The NIST AI Risk Management Framework gives US organisations a voluntary starting point, and firms selling into the EU also face the EU AI Act. Building the system once covers both. This course certifies you as the implementer; the organisation is certified separately by an accredited certification body.

Frequently asked questions
Does the price include the PECB exam?
Yes. US$589 covers the official PECB eLearning, the exam voucher, two remote-proctored attempts, and the certification fee. There are no separate exam or certification 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?
Around 30 to 40 hours of study. Most people finish within four to eight weeks alongside their day job, and you have 12 months of portal access.
What is the exam format?
A 3-hour, open-book, remote-proctored exam covering six domains, booked through myPECB at a date and time you choose within your 12 months of access.
Do I get practical examples for AI policies and controls?
Yes. Each module includes worked examples for AI policy statements, risk registers, Annex A control mappings and governance playbooks, so you can mirror them in your own rollout.
Should I take Lead Implementer or Lead Auditor?
Lead Implementer if you are building the AI management system, Lead Auditor if you are assessing one. They are the same price here, and both include the exam voucher and two attempts.
Do I need a technical AI background?
No. The course is aimed at governance, risk, security and compliance professionals who oversee AI programmes. Technical examples are explained in business language.
Is a copy of the ISO 42001 standard included?
No, and you do not need it to complete the course or pass the exam. ISO/IEC 42001 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.
