ELY, CAMBRIDGESHIRE, UNITED KINGDOM, July 20, 2016 /EINPresswire.com/ -- IT Governance, the leading provider of cyber security services and ISO 27001 expertise, has launched a 20% discount on the popular ISO 27001 Certified ISMS Foundation Online training course to help organisations worldwide upskill their internal information security teams and reduce the risk of ongoing cyber threats.

The ISO 27001 Certified ISMS Foundation Online training course is designed to equip individuals interested in undertaking an ISO 27001 implementation project with the key skills required to prevent and achieve compliance to the ISO 27001:2013 standard.

Alan Calder, the founder and chief executive officer of IT Governance, said: “The ISO 27001 Foundation course is essential for anyone looking to take their commitment to information security a step further by implementing a formal information security management system (ISMS).

“The course not only provides an introduction to the information security standard, ISO 27001, but also explains the benefits of implementing the Standard and shows attendees how they can get senior management buy-in, which is one of the most common problems they face. The course also provides a valuable insight into the ISO 27001 information security controls that every organisation has to consider.”

The training course, developed by ISO 27001 experts and leaders of the world’s first ISO 27001 implementation project Alan Calder and Steve Watkins, uses a combination of formal training, practical exercises and relevant case studies to impart knowledge to delegates. The interactive Live Online session is a time- and cost-effective solution that allows individuals to balance the demands of work while enhancing their skills and professional development.

The one-day course takes place on 1 August 2016 and is delivered by one of IT Governance’s experienced ISO 27001 trainers and consultants. The session provides an overview of the available standards and management system documentation, the benefits of ISMS certification, the key elements of ISMS implementation project planning, and the key steps of ISO 27001 risk assessments and controls.

The course supports professional development. Upon completing the course, delegates will sit a 60-minute multiple-choice exam. Delegates who pass the exam are awarded the ISO27001 Certified ISMS Foundation (CIS F) qualification by the International Board for IT Governance Qualifications (IBITGQ). IT Governance’s IBITGQ courses are accredited to ISO 27024 by the Global Association for Software Quality (Gasq).
