The ISO/IEC 27001 Transition Course is designed for professionals who already hold ISO/IEC 27001 certification and need to transition their knowledge and certification to the updated standard. This course helps participants understand the changes, updates and new requirements in the latest version of the ISO/IEC 27001 standard and how to apply them effectively within an Information Security Management System (ISMS).
This transition course provides a clear and structured approach to understand how the ISO/IEC 27001 standard has evolved, and what the implications are for organisations and practitioners. Through comparative analysis and practical examples, participants learn how to adapt existing ISMS documentation, processes and practices to align with the updated standard. It is ideal for those who already work with ISO/IEC 27001 and need to maintain certification or ensure compliance with current version requirements.
Course objectivesUpon completing the course, participants will be able to:
PrerequisitesParticipants should have prior knowledge of ISO/IEC 27001, typically through Foundation or Implementer training, and practical experience working with an ISMS.
Target audienceThis course is aimed at professionals holding current ISO/IEC 27001 certification, ISMS team members, auditors and managers who need to transition their certification or update their knowledge. It is also relevant for consultants supporting organisations with the transition to the new standard.
The course begins with a detailed overview of the revised ISO/IEC 27001 standard. Participants explore how the structure, terminology and requirements have shifted compared to the previous version, with emphasis on practical implications for ISMS governance.
Participants study the most significant updates in the standard and how these affect existing ISMS processes. The session involves comparative discussions and examples that illustrate how changes improve alignment with modern information security practices.
This section focuses on how to update and adapt current ISMS documentation, controls and processes. Participants discuss best practices for transitioning without disrupting established organisational practices.
Participants learn how to apply changes within their own organisational context. This includes risk assessment adaptation, control alignment and reporting updates to support compliance and certification readiness.
The final part of the course is dedicated to preparing participants for the Transition certification exam. Key concepts are reviewed, and exam guidance and strategies are provided to support successful outcomes.
After successfully completing the exam, you can apply for the credential shown on the table below. For more information about ISO/IEC 27001 certifications and the PECB certification process, please refer to Certification Rules and Policies.
