ISO 28000 Transition
The ISO 28000 Transition training course enables participants to thoroughly understand the differences between ISO 28000:2007 and ISO 28000:2022. In addition, it allows participants to acquire knowledge on the new concepts, requirements, and recommendations presented by ISO 28000:2022.
Published in March 2022, the latest edition of ISO 28000 follows the harmonized structure of ISO, where the requirements for the security management system (SeMS) are outlined in clauses 4 to 10. This structure facilitates the integration of the SeMS with other management systems based on ISO standards. The title of the standard has also changed from Specification for security management systems for the supply chain to Security and resilience – Security management systems – Requirements, to emphasize the fact that ISO 28000 requirements are not only applicable to organizations in the supply chain, but to all organizations, regardless of the type, size, or industry.
The “PECB ISO 28000 Transition” training course provides detailed information on the revised and new requirements and terminology. Furthermore, it equips participants with the necessary competencies to support organizations in transitioning their SeMS to ensure compliance with ISO 28000:2022.
After attending the training course, you can take the exam, and if you successfully pass the exam, you can apply for the “PECB Certified ISO 28000 Transition” credential. The internationally recognized “PECB ISO 28000 Transition” certificate demonstrates that you have the knowledge and professional capabilities to successfully update a SeMS to ensure compliance with the requirements of ISO 28000:2022.

What is the ISO 28000 Transition course and why is it important?
The ISO 28000 Transition course is designed to help professionals and organisations update their knowledge and skills from the previous version of ISO 28000 to the latest requirements. It ensures that participants understand the new structural changes, revised terminology, risk-based approaches, and enhanced compliance requirements for Supply Chain Security Management Systems (SCSMS). Transitioning is critical to maintaining certification, achieving compliance, and aligning with international best practices.
Who should attend the ISO 28000 Transition course?
This course is intended for professionals who are already certified or familiar with ISO 28000 and wish to transition to the updated standard. It is highly beneficial for supply chain managers, security officers, compliance managers, risk management professionals, lead auditors, and consultants responsible for maintaining or upgrading their organisation’s certification.
Why is the transition from the old to the new ISO 28000 standard necessary?
Transitioning is necessary because certification bodies only recognise compliance with the most recent standard. Failure to transition can result in the suspension or withdrawal of certification, loss of credibility, and missed opportunities for international trade and partnerships.
Does the course cover both theoretical and practical aspects of the transition?
Yes. The ISO 28000 Transition course combines theoretical insights with practical workshops, case studies, and real-world examples to ensure that participants gain actionable knowledge for implementing the new standard.
What kind of assessment is included in the ISO 28000 Transition course?
Most transition courses include knowledge assessments through scenario-based exercises, practical implementation tasks, and sometimes a final exam to evaluate participants’ understanding of the revised standard.
Does ISO 28000:2022 require additional documentation compared to the older version?
The new version follows a streamlined approach aligned with Annex SL. While it reduces prescriptive documentation, it requires a stronger emphasis on demonstrating evidence of risk management, leadership involvement, and continual improvement in supply chain security.
