Why Should You Attend?
ISO 45001 is the first global occupational health and safety management system standard that replaces OHSAS 18001. The PECB Certified ISO 45001 Lead Auditor training course helps in developing the necessary skillset to perform occupational health and safety management system (OH&S MS) audits by applying widely recognized audit principles, procedures, and methods.
This training course has been developed to reflect the importance of an effective audit. It strengthens your knowledge and skills to plan and carry out an OH&S MS audit in compliance with the guidelines for auditing management systems provided in ISO 19011 and the certification process described in ISO/IEC 17021-1.
The exercises provided for this training course are designed to help you practice the most important aspects of an OH&S MS audit: ISO 45001 requirements, auditing principles, tools and techniques used to obtain evidence, leading a team of auditors, conducting interviews with auditees, reviewing documented information, drafting nonconformity reports, and preparing the final audit report.
The successful completion of the training course is followed by an exam. If you pass the exam, you can apply for the PECB Certified ISO 45001 Lead Auditor credential. An IAS certified and internationally recognized PECB ISO 45001 Lead Auditor certificate validates your professional capabilities and demonstrates your ability to audit an OH&S MS based on ISO 45001.

Yes. The PECB Certified ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Auditor credential is part of PECB’s ISO/IEC 42001 personnel certification scheme. PECB’s certification scheme covers professionals who audit artificial intelligence management systems against ISO/IEC 42001 requirements and recognized auditing practices. PECB also announced in August 2026 that its ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Auditor personnel certification scheme is independently accredited by UKAS under ISO/IEC 17024:2012.
The main prerequisite for participating in the ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Auditor training course is a fundamental understanding of ISO/IEC 42001 and AI principles and concepts.
The training is particularly relevant for professionals with an auditing background, AI management professionals, consultants, advisors, and professionals involved in AI implementation or AI system architecture.
The PECB Certified ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Auditor exam assesses knowledge and skills across seven competency domains, covering AI management systems, ISO/IEC 42001 requirements, audit principles, audit preparation, conducting audits, closing audits, and managing an audit program.
The current PECB candidate handbook describes the Lead Auditor exam as an open-book examination, with permitted reference materials including the ISO/IEC 42001 standard, training materials, personal notes and a hard-copy dictionary. PECB also states that it is progressively transitioning toward open-book, scenario-based multiple-choice examinations. Candidates should check PECB’s current examination rules for the exam format applicable to their attempt.
For the ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Auditor training course, the initial exam attempt is included, and PECB currently states that if a candidate fails the exam, they can retake it within 12 months of the initial attempt for free.
For your product page, I would phrase this as “Initial exam + free retake” rather than claiming a fixed number of total attempts, because the official wording specifies the free retake period rather than presenting it as an unlimited-attempt policy.
Yes. The training is designed around theoretical concepts, ISO/IEC 42001 requirements and practical audit examples. It also includes exercises and quizzes, including scenario-based activities designed to help participants prepare for the certification examination.
For ThinkRyt-specific support, however, I would not use PECB’s wording to promise unlimited support unless ThinkRyt actually provides that service.
You could write:
Yes. Training participants can ask questions and engage with the trainer during the training sessions. ThinkRyt support is also available for course-related assistance.
Only keep the second sentence if ThinkRyt actually provides that support.
PECB certifications are valid for three years. To maintain the certification, certified professionals must meet PECB’s applicable certification-maintenance requirements, including continuing professional development requirements and the applicable annual maintenance fee.
Accordion Content
Yes, but the Lead Auditor credential has its own certification requirements. Passing the Lead Auditor exam alone does not automatically grant the PECB Certified ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Auditor credential.
For the ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Auditor credential, PECB currently requires:
- Five years of professional experience
- Two years of experience in AI
- 300 hours of audit activities
- Successful completion of the PECB ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Auditor exam or an accepted equivalent
- Signing the PECB Code of Ethics
PECB also has a formal process for upgrading credentials when the applicable requirements are fulfilled.
