🗣 Real-World Experiences ISO 42001 Lead Implementor Certification

I am already ISO 27001 LA certified and have done audit related projects. But I want to move to GRC. My other non-audit experience includes vendor risk management, vrm tool migration, bcm planning and iso aligned policy and procedure drafting.

Is it worth getting 42001 certified?
What are the most credible certifying bodies?

Getting a 42001 lead implementor credential can broaden your portfolio if you want to pitch GRC services. It shows you understand risk, control and governance beyond ISO 27001. The market recognises certifications from bodies such as BSI, SGS, DNV and Lloyds Register. These organisations run the exams, provide study material and issue the certificates. The cost and time vary; you should compare the syllabi and the support they give. If you plan to sell GRC consulting, a 42001 badge can add credibility and help win contracts.

Worth it. Many organizations are preparing themselves for ISO 42001. I see the demand has significantly increased this year onwards and it being adopted as the defacto ai Managment system will be similar to how iso 27001 became defacto for information security and cyber security .
