Where it fits in the UK
Why UK organisations ask for it
ISO/IEC 27701:2025 is the international standard for privacy information management systems. UK organisations use it to show how they handle personal data under UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, which the ICO oversees, and organisations are often certified to it alongside an ISO/IEC 27001 certification audit. Lead Implementer teaches you to design, deploy and run that privacy information management system. This course certifies you as an implementer, not your organisation.

Frequently asked questions
Does the price include the PECB exam?
Yes. £367 covers the official PECB eLearning, the exam voucher, remote proctoring and the certification fee. There are no separate exam fees.
Is this course PECB eLearning or PECB Self-Study?
It is PECB eLearning, which PECB delivers through PECB Certified Trainers in pre-recorded video format, with quizzes and the official course materials on myPECB, and it earns 31 CPD credits on completion. PECB Self-Study is a different PECB format: the official course materials without the recorded lessons, which PECB describes as suitable for people with considerable knowledge of the subject who do not require assisted lecturing, and it earns 16 CPD credits for a course of the same length. PECB makes its video lessons available only in eLearning. £367 + VAT (£440.40 including VAT) is the price for this eLearning course, charged in pounds, and it includes the PECB exam voucher, two exam attempts, the certification fee, the first year of PECB certification maintenance and 12 months of access. What PECB eLearning and Self-Study each include.
How many exam attempts are included?
Two. Your first sitting is included, and if you do not pass, your second attempt within 12 months is included too.
Are there any additional fees?
Not from us. £367 + VAT is charged at checkout, in pounds, which is £440.40 including 20% UK VAT. The one ongoing cost is PECB's own Annual Maintenance Fee, which the PECB Certification Maintenance Policy sets at USD 390 per certificate for each three-year cycle and which keeps the credential active. Your first year is already included in the course price, so that fee starts in year two and is paid to PECB directly.
How long does the course take?
About 30 to 40 hours of self-paced study, the eLearning equivalent of a five day classroom course. Your access lasts 12 months.
What is the exam format?
Three hours, open book, 80 multiple choice questions. It is remote-proctored: you choose one of the scheduled online exam sessions in myPECB and sit it from home or the office.
Is the certification recognised in the UK?
Yes. PECB is an international certification body, and the credential is the same certificate wherever you sit the exam.
What experience does the full credential need?
Five years of professional experience, two of them in privacy management, and at least 300 hours of PIMS project experience.
Is a copy of the ISO/IEC 27701 standard included?
No, and you do not need it to complete the course or pass the exam. ISO/IEC 27701 is a licensed document, so if you want your own copy you buy it from iso.org or your national standards body.
Who am I buying from?
Mindset Cyber, an authorised PECB training partner based in Australia. The course, the materials and the exam are PECB’s own and are identical wherever you enrol. You are charged in pounds and supported by email.
