Becoming an ISO 22301 Lead Implementer is a strategic move for professionals aiming to specialize in Business Continuity Management Systems (BCMS). This globally recognized certification validates your ability to implement, manage, and maintain a BCMS in alignment with ISO 22301 standards.
Start by building a solid foundation in ISO 22301:2019, the international standard for business continuity management. Familiarize yourself with key concepts such as:
Risk assessment and business impact analysis
Business continuity planning and strategies
Crisis management and recovery procedures
Compliance, audit, and continual improvement
There are no strict prerequisites, but a background in information security, risk management, or compliance can be beneficial. Basic knowledge of ISO management systems or business continuity principles will also help you grasp the course content better.
Join a PECB-accredited or certified training provider like Microtek Learning, which offers structured training designed to meet international standards. A typical ISO 22301 Lead Implementer course includes:
4 to 5 days of expert-led instruction
Real-world case studies and exercises
Detailed guidance on planning, implementing, and managing a BCMS
Preparation for the ISO 22301 Lead Implementer certification exam
After completing the course, you'll need to pass the ISO 22301 Lead Implementer exam. This exam tests your understanding of ISO 22301 clauses, implementation processes, and best practices.
Certification bodies usually require you to demonstrate practical implementation experience. Document your role in BCMS projects, including tasks like conducting risk assessments, defining continuity objectives, and executing response plans.
Once you’ve passed the exam and fulfilled the experience requirement, you can apply for your ISO 22301 Lead Implementer Certification from a recognized body such as PECB, IRCA, or Exemplar Global.
