WHAT WE DO

Learn the standard.
Put it into practice.

Aegentra Academy

Official PECB courses in ISO 27001 and ISO 42001 at Foundation, Lead Implementer and Lead Auditor level. Choose Self-Study slides or recorded eLearning where listed.

Selected packages add two hours with an experienced consultant. That session is not a full live PECB course. Enterprise live online training is available by enquiry for ISO 27001 and ISO 42001.

Govern and internal audit

Remote ISO 27001 implementation for information security management systems and ISO 42001 implementation for AI management systems. Start with scope, responsibilities, risk decisions and evidence.

Internal audits are separately scoped. Competence, impartiality and prior involvement are checked before assigning the auditor. Certification decisions stay with the independent certification body.

NEW ZEALAND CONTEXT

Your obligations.
Your operating reality.

The Privacy Act 2020 sets principles for handling personal information. Information security work should consider the obligations applicable to your organisation, alongside customer requirements and the systems that process your data.

Read the Privacy Commissioner’s guidance

New Zealand’s AI strategy and MBIE’s voluntary responsible AI guidance were released in July 2025. MBIE’s resources point to ISO/IEC 42001 as an AI management system standard. This is useful context for governance; it does not make certification mandatory or establish government endorsement of a course or provider.

General context, not legal advice or a promise of regulatory compliance.

DIRECTOR & PRINCIPAL CONSULTANT

Harry Sidhu

Practical work.
Named accountability.

Harry leads Aegentra’s Govern practice, scopes engagements and reviews Aegentra’s guides and supplementary learning resources. His published Aegentra profile describes 10 years in cybersecurity engineering and consulting, including ISO 27001 and ISO 42001 implementation, government ISMS work and Essential Eight uplift.

His published professional credential is PECB Certified ISO/IEC 27001 Lead Implementer, certificate 9303577-2026-05. Use Harry Sidhu and this number in PECB’s verification tool.

Aegentra’s guides and Labs questions are independently authored resources, not official PECB examination content.

Directory information checked 11 October 2026; this is not an award-year claim. Trainers delivering Aegentra courses are not presented as employees or New Zealand-based staff. Confirm the assigned trainer, course authorisation and availability before booking. PECB’s recorded eLearning faculty is separate.

HOW WE WORK

Four commitments.
One practical standard.

Implemented, not just advised

Connect policies, responsibilities and controls to the systems people actually use. Agree the practical deliverables before the engagement starts.

Named accountability

Identify the person responsible for each part of the engagement. Confirm competence, availability and the proposed delivery arrangements before work begins.

Evidence over assertion

Make findings traceable to the agreed criteria and the evidence examined. Be clear about the scope, limitations and follow-up actions.

Context before templates

Start with your organisation, customers, information and AI uses. Consider the New Zealand requirements relevant to that scope; do not treat a generic template as proof of compliance.

How delivery roles are assigned.

Scope agreed

Define the standard, legal entity, systems, services, locations, deliverables and exclusions.

Conflicts checked

Consider previous implementation work, reporting relationships and other threats to auditor objectivity.

Roles assigned

Confirm the engagement lead, specialist and auditor as needed. A different consultant can audit work implemented by another Aegentra consultant, subject to impartiality checks.

Evidence confirmed

Agree access, interviews, sampling, reporting and any separate quality review included in the scope.

Implementation, internal audit and certification are different responsibilities.

Internal auditors must not audit their own implementation work. Aegentra checks objectivity, impartiality and prior involvement before assigning an internal audit. A different Aegentra consultant may be suitable; the assignment is not automatic. An independent certification body performs the certification audit and makes its own decision.

QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Before we work
together.

Is Aegentra a New Zealand company?

No. Aegentra is a registered business name of HANSDIVISIONGROUP PTY LTD, an Australian private company. The New Zealand website serves New Zealand organisations and learners online; it does not represent a separate New Zealand company. Our Australian ABN and ACN are listed above so you can check the contracting entity.

Does Aegentra have an office in New Zealand?

No. Aegentra does not claim a physical New Zealand office or a New Zealand-based team. Our teams are based in Melbourne and Sydney, Australia, delivering online to New Zealand. Enquiries use contact@aegentra.co.nz. Confirm the people, time zone and delivery arrangements for your engagement before booking.

Is Aegentra an authorised PECB training partner?

Yes. Aegentra’s PECB Partner ID is 232290, and you can check the current listing in PECB’s partner directory. PECB supplies its official course materials and administers its examination and certification requirements. Aegentra’s consultancy sessions and independently authored Labs practice are separate from those official materials and examinations.

Are PECB certificates recognised in New Zealand?

Acceptance depends on the credential and the organisation assessing it. Check the employer, customer or tender requirements and the current PECB programme and accreditation information. An individual’s PECB credential is not an organisation’s ISO certificate, a New Zealand qualification equivalence or a guarantee of employment, tender acceptance or legal compliance.

Who will train me?

It depends on the format and booking. Self-Study uses official materials; recorded eLearning uses PECB’s recorded content. Sean O’Donoghue-Hayes and Dr Harbir Singh are trainers identified for Aegentra course delivery, with course-specific authorisations linked on our team page. A trainer or consultant is assigned only after the format, subject, availability and applicable authorisation are confirmed.

Can I train in New Zealand time?

Yes, subject to the delivery format and confirmed arrangements. Self-Study and recorded eLearning let you plan your own study time. Any consultant session or enterprise live online training must have its dates, New Zealand time zone, assigned person and inclusions agreed before booking. We do not promise an unconfirmed timetable or physical classroom.

Do you charge GST?

Prices on this website are in NZD. Aegentra is not registered for New Zealand GST and does not charge New Zealand GST. Australian customers are subject to our 10% Australian GST rule. We confirm the applicable tax and total payable before payment; the displayed base price should not be treated as a universal tax exemption.

How do I verify Aegentra and its trainers?

Use ABN Lookup to check HANSDIVISIONGROUP PTY LTD and its registered Aegentra business name. Follow our PECB partner and trainer directory links to check current listings and course-specific trainer authorisations. Harry’s published certificate number and PECB verification link are provided separately. Ask us to confirm the assigned person and relevant evidence for your particular engagement.

Can you help my organisation implement ISO 27001 or ISO 42001 in New Zealand?

Yes. We can scope remote implementation support around your information security or AI management system, including responsibilities, risk decisions, controls and evidence. Internal audit is separately scoped with objectivity and prior-involvement checks. An independent certification body conducts the certification audit and makes the certification decision; Aegentra does not issue organisational ISO certificates.
