About This Course

Duration: 16 hours

An ISMS audit isn't like auditing a quality system. You're not just checking whether procedures are followed – you're verifying that information assets are genuinely protected, that controls are working as designed, and that risks identified on paper are actually being managed in practice. That takes an auditor who understands both the 93 controls and how to gather evidence in an information security context.

This online Auditor training builds that capability. You'll learn how to interpret ISO/IEC 27001:2022 requirements from an auditor's perspective, evaluate controls across all four categories (Organizational, People, Physical, Technological), assess risk treatment plans, and document findings that drive real security improvements. Through a structured curriculum combining theoretical knowledge with practical application, you'll develop the competence to audit information security management systems against ISO/IEC 27001:2022.

The course is delivered entirely online and is self-paced, allowing you to progress through the material according to your own schedule. Upon successful completion, you will receive a certificate documenting your training as an ISO/IEC 27001 Auditor.

What Makes an Effective ISMS Internal Auditor

An effective internal auditor does more than check compliance boxes. They help their organization identify improvement opportunities and strengthen information security. A competent ISO/IEC 27001 auditor must be able to:

  • Interpret ISO/IEC 27001:2022 requirements and controls – understand what each of the 93 controls looks like in practice and how to verify they're effectively implemented, not just documented
  • Plan risk-based audits – develop checklists that focus on the organization's actual threat landscape rather than generic compliance questions
  • Gather objective evidence in an ISMS context – interview system administrators, review access logs, inspect configurations, and test controls rather than relying on documentation alone
  • Identify and classify nonconformities – distinguish between minor documentation gaps and control failures that expose the organization to genuine risk
  • Write findings that drive action – communicate audit results in terms that make sense to both IT teams and senior management, so corrective actions actually get implemented

This course develops these capabilities through structured lessons, practical examples, and audit resources you can apply immediately in your organization.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have access to the course materials?

Once enrolled, you have 3 months access to the course content (can be extended upon request). During this time you can complete the training at your own pace and return to review materials whenever you need to refresh your knowledge.

Course access ends upon successfully completing the final exam.

What's the difference between ISO 27001 Auditor and Lead Auditor training?

Auditor training prepares you to participate in internal audits as a team member, covering audit fundamentals and techniques.

Lead Auditor training covers additional competencies required to plan audits, lead audit teams, and manage the entire audit program.

Auditor certification is ideal for those beginning their auditing career or contributing to internal audit programs.

What's new in ISO/IEC 27001:2022 compared to the 2013 version?

The 2022 revision introduced 11 new controls and reorganized all 93 controls into 4 categories: Organizational, People, Physical, and Technological. Key additions include threat intelligence, information security for cloud services, ICT readiness for business continuity, and secure coding.

The course covers all these changes in detail, ensuring you can audit against the latest requirements.

Does this course cover the 2024 Climate Action amendments?

Yes. The course includes a dedicated session (Session 10) on the Climate Action Changes amendments (2024) to ISO 27001, ensuring your knowledge is current with the latest standard requirements.

Can I use the audit checklists in my own organization?

Yes. The 400+ question audit checklist provided with the course is designed to be a practical tool that you can customize and use for internal audits within your organization. It covers both clause-wise and control-wise questions.

What are the prerequisites for this course?

There are no formal prerequisites except the ability to understand English. Basic knowledge of ISO management systems and interest in information security are advantageous but not required.

Can I try this course before buying it?

While we don't have a sample version available, you can try the entire course without risk! Your purchase includes our comprehensive 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee.

Can we purchase this course for multiple auditors?

Yes. Bulk enrollment is available and volume discounts apply automatically. Use the quantity selector on this page or contact us for larger groups. A manager dashboard lets you enroll your audit team from one central dashboard.

How does bulk enrollment work for team purchases?

When you purchase multiple seats, you can designate a course manager during checkout. The manager has 12 months to enroll the team from the dashboard, and each auditor then gets 3 months of access to complete the self-paced training and exam on their own schedule.
