The Mindset Cyber learner hub

Your learner hub is included with your PECB course. It takes you from your first login to your certificate, one clear step at a time.

The Mindset Cyber learner hub is included with every PECB eLearning and Self-Study course you buy from Mindset Cyber. A self-paced course gives you the material and 12 months to finish; the hub gives you the plan to get through it. It shows one next step at a time, keeps your deadline in view, and gives you written support from a PECB Certified Trainer and a community of learners on the same exam when you get stuck.

The learner hub’s Home on a laptop, with the course page on a phone overlapping its lower right corner.

Always know your next step to your PECB certificate

A self-paced course is long, and after a busy week it is easy to lose your place.

After you buy a PECB course from Mindset Cyber, the learner hub sets out six steps from getting set up to getting certified. Your home screen leads with your next step, with the help articles for that step beside it. Bought more than one course? Study one at a time, and switch when you choose.

The six steps, and what each one covers:

  1. Get set up: myPECB access and your study guide
  2. Make your plan: pick the month you will sit
  3. Learn the course: one section at a time
  4. Practise at exam pace
  5. Sit the exam: two attempts included
  6. Get certified: your PECB certificate

On a Foundation course or the ISO 9001:2026 Transition, the last step is called Get your certificate.

The ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Auditor course page in the learner hub: the course badge with a 10 months left chip, gauges for the exam countdown, course days, domains ready and the exam index, and the six steps with step 3, Learn the course, open.

Finish within your 12 months

PECB gives you 12 months from purchase to use your exam attempts and apply for your certificate. Without an exam date, those months slip away.

Each course shows how long you have left. The hub helps you choose the month you will sit, add your exam date to your calendar and get reminder emails before it, and explains how your included attempts work. If something stops you booking, "What is in the way?" helps you sort it out.

PECB's exam rules, from booking to the retake, are in our PECB exam guide.

The ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Auditor badge with a 10 months left chip, Enrolled in myPECB, and four gauges: the exam in 22 days, 2 of 4 course days done, 3 of 7 domains ready, and 12 of 16 exam index rows with a slide.

Ask a PECB Certified Trainer when you are stuck

Studying alone, one confusing topic can stop you for weeks.

Ask a PECB Certified Trainer. Answered within two days. Private, in writing, between you and the trainer.

Ask about the course content, your study plan or how the exam works. Other learners and search engines never see your questions. The answer arrives in the hub, and a notification tells you it is there.

This is written support for your course, not coaching or a live session.

A private question in the learner hub, How do stage 1, stage 2 and the audit plan fit together?, with a step by step answer from a PECB Certified Trainer.

Study alongside a community of learners on the same exam

Self-study can feel like you are the only one doing it.

A community of learners on the same exam. Only people who bought a PECB course from Mindset Cyber.

Ask a question, share a win or run a poll, with photos if they help. Vote posts helpful, mark the best answer and follow the posts you care about. House rules, blocking and reporting keep it a good place to learn.

The community’s Hot tab in the learner hub: study questions on audit sampling, study weeks and logging, each with replies and helpful votes.

Study with a plan, not just slides

Reading every slide from start to finish is slow, and it does not show you where the exam puts its weight.

Your study tools are built from your study guide. Each one saves as you go, and finishing it ticks off steps on your path.

  • A plan that works back from your exam date. Choose a pace from your study guide, and every course day gets a date, along with your practice and the exam app's compatibility check.
  • A clear view of every exam domain. The domain check shows what each PECB exam domain covers and where the course teaches it. Tick the self-checks and rate yourself, and "Domains ready" shows how far along you are.
  • An exam index for an open-book exam. Start from the topics your study guide suggests and record where each one sits: the clause or control, the course day, the section and the slide. Add rows and sort by clause, so you know where to look when the course slides open in the exam app.
  • A revision sheet for a closed-book exam. Write each topic's key point in your own words, then mark it Sure or Not yet, so your revision goes where it is needed.
  • Everything else in one place. A course reference with the course map, key terms and clauses, your printable study guide (PDF, included) and, on the six ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 42001 courses, links to Control Stack to look up the controls.
The study plan: the next course day and when it is due, a button to mark it done, the Focused pace, and a schedule with course days 1 and 2 done.
The domain check: 3 of 7 domains ready and 3 rated, with the first domain not yet ready open to show its self-checks and a 1 to 5 rating.
The exam index: rows of topics, each with its clause or control and the course day, section and slide where it sits, 12 of 16 with a slide.

Know where you stand before exam day

It is hard to judge on your own whether you are ready to book.

On every course, the domain check shows which parts of the exam need more work.

On five courses, an exam warm-up of 10 practice questions is included: ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Implementer, ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Auditor, ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Implementer, ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Auditor and ISO 31000 Risk Manager. Written by Mindset Prep in the style of the exam.

Timed mock exams come with Mindset Prep, which those five can add for a year. More about Mindset Prep.

Keep your CPD evidence in one place

Keeping a PECB certification means logging CPD hours over three years, and the evidence is easy to lose.

Log your CPD hours with their evidence, such as audits, projects, courses and talks, against your three-year target, then submit them in myPECB. Your attachments are private: not even the trainer can open them. You can download your log at any time.

For certificates that need CPD. Foundation, Provisional and Transition certificates need none. More on keeping your certification: PECB certification levels.

Help with each PECB step, screen by screen

myPECB, the PECB Exams app and the certificate application each have their own steps, and it is easy to get one wrong.

The help centre walks you through each one, with screenshots wherever there is a screen to follow: myPECB and your course, booking your exam, exam day, results and your certificate, using the hub, Mindset Prep, and orders and refunds. The hub also tracks your enrolment, from "We are enrolling you in myPECB" to "Enrolled in myPECB", and asks for your myPECB email if your order did not include it.

Help and how-tos in the learner hub: guides on myPECB and your course, booking your exam, exam day, results and your certificate, and using the hub.

On your phone or your laptop

The hub is built for your phone first and works on a laptop too. Sign in with a link or code sent to your email, or with a password. One search finds your courses, steps, tools, help articles and community posts, and you choose which emails you get.

Your progress stays in one place: badges, a week run for every week in a row you study, and your exam results. You can download your data or delete your account at any time.

The You page in the learner hub: a learner’s two courses, a week run of 3 weeks in a row, their community activity and six badges earned.
