No formal prerequisites are required to participate in our ISO 27001 Security Officer course. However, to ensure that all participants get the maximum benefit from the training, we recommend that beginners first familiarize themselves with the basics through our two-day ISO 27001 Foundation Training. This step prepares you optimally for the advanced content of the Security Officer training.

Participants who are already familiar with the concepts of ISO 27001 are welcome to jump directly into the Security Officer training to deepen their knowledge and develop their skills in the field of information security.

Please note that participants without an ISO 27001 Foundation Certificate will initially only receive an exam certificate after completing the exam. In order to obtain the full role certificate as an ISMS Security Officer, it is necessary to successfully pass the Foundation exam as well. This additional step confirms your comprehensive understanding of the subject matter and officially qualifies you for the role of an ISMS Security Officer.
