Description

The ISO 27701 Lead Auditor training is designed to train professionals in conducting audits on a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS) according to ISO/IEC 27701:2025. The training focuses on applying internationally recognized audit principles, methods, and techniques to objectively assess privacy management within organizations.

In the training, you will learn to prepare, conduct, and report audits in line with relevant guidelines such as ISO 19011, ISO/IEC 17021-1, and ISO/IEC 27706. Additionally, you will gain practical skills in applying audit techniques and effectively managing an audit program.

The training also extensively covers assessing the requirements from ISO/IEC 27701:2025 and the associated privacy controls for both organizations that process personal data (PII processors) and organizations that are responsible for it (PII controllers). You will learn how to evaluate the implementation and functioning of these measures and how to assess whether an organization manages its PIMS well, continuously improves, and effectively monitors.

In the ISO 27701 Lead Auditor exam, you will be tested on the following domains, for which the training will obviously prepare you:

  • Domain 1: Fundamental principles and concepts of a Privacy Information Management System
  • Domain 2: Requirements of a Privacy Information Management System
  • Domain 3: Fundamental audit concepts and principles
  • Domain 4: Preparing for an ISO/IEC 27701 audit
  • Domain 5: Conducting an ISO/IEC 27701 audit
  • Domain 6: Completing an ISO/IEC 27701 audit
  • Domain 7: Managing an ISO/IEC 27701 audit program

 

Methodology

The training is a combination of theory and practice and is illustrated with examples based on real cases. To fully benefit from the various practical assignments, the number of participants per group is limited. You will complete the training directly with the subsequent exam after which you can apply for the corresponding certification and title based on your results and experience. Our trainers have practical experience with ISO 27701 audits in various sectors.

Certification

By passing the included "ISO 27701 Lead Auditor" exam, which takes place on the last day of the training, you will obtain the corresponding ISO 27701 (Provisional/Lead/Senior Lead) Auditor certification from PECB, depending on your experience. Any necessary retake for this exam is included (to be taken within one year after the start of the training).

Frequently Asked Questions

International Organization for Standardization/IEC 27701 is an international standard for establishing, implementing, and improving a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS). The standard helps organizations manage personal data in a structured and demonstrable way and supports both organizations that process personal data themselves and parties that do this on behalf of customers. The latest version of ISO/IEC 27701 allows for the establishment of an independent privacy management system without the need for a complete ISO/IEC 27001 management system first. This enables organizations to implement privacy management more flexibly while aligning with internationally recognized management standards. ISO/IEC 27701 supports organizations in complying with privacy legislation, contractual obligations, and requirements from customers and regulators. Additionally, the standard provides practical guidance for audits, risk management, and demonstrably improving privacy processes.

Organizations are increasingly processing personal data through cloud platforms, applications, IoT solutions, online services, and digital collaborations. As a result, the risks of data breaches, unauthorized access, misuse of personal data, and violations of privacy legislation such as the GDPR are also increasing. A Privacy Information Management System (PIMS) helps organizations to manage these risks in a controlled manner. With a PIMS, processes, responsibilities, risk analyses, and privacy controls are structured, ensuring that personal data is better protected and compliance can be demonstrated. Additionally, good privacy management contributes to trust among customers, partners, and regulators. Organizations demonstrate that privacy and data protection are integral parts of their operations and risk management.

ISO/IEC 27001 primarily focuses on information security and the establishment of an Information Security Management System (ISMS). ISO/IEC 27701 builds on this with additional requirements and guidelines for privacy and the protection of personal data. While ISO/IEC 27001 mainly looks at the security of information, ISO/IEC 27701 specifically addresses privacy management, responsibilities regarding personal data, and compliance with privacy legislation such as the GDPR. As a result, ISO/IEC 27701 is a valuable addition for organizations that want to systematically organize privacy.
