Career pivot to security GRC - non tech background

Hi everyone

I’m a UK based comms pro (15+ years experience at senior level across corp, regulated and govt sectors - most recently tech) and have taken a career break to pivot to cyber GRC.

I’ve passed CC and security+ and am now looking at arranging my ISO 27k Lead Implementer exam. I’ll be looking at instructor led course as, whilst I’ve led BC and IM from a comms perspective, I don’t have the technical experience I’m assuming most do and want to ensure the learning is fully embedded.

Do you have any providers and/or accreditors you recommend? Or any other words of wisdom?

In all honesty, this has been a big step and I’ve had a fair few wobbles along the way so any advice or guidance would be very appreciated!

Thanks in advance

Edit: I am British and will remain UK based for the next 5 years. Will eventually be working remotely from a base in Europe.
