Official PECB materials
First exam attempt and one free retake
Certificate/certification application fee
Prices are per learner in NZD. Australian billing addresses attract 10% GST; no GST is added for other billing countries. Confirm the total and package before paying.
Confirm the course-material access period, exam language, applicable edition and booking terms before payment. The exam deadline is not the same as material access. Mandatory consumer rights are not excluded. PECB’s current general policy includes the first exam attempt, one free retake and the certification application in partner training fees. For Self-Study and eLearning, it states that the bundled cycle must be completed within 12 months of purchase; a first retake requires a minimum 15-day wait after a failed attempt. Check your voucher dates before scheduling. This is not a promise of 12 months of course-material or lab access.
Who this course suits best
Choose for the responsibility.
Energy and facilities managers
Connect energy use, performance evidence and improvement through an energy management system.
Operations and engineering teams
Use the scenario to identify the concepts and responsibilities. Explain the difference between a requirement, a process and evidence. This introductory pathway is not a substitute for implementation experience.
Management-system practitioners
Use this pathway to connect your existing work with the course’s concepts. Review the prerequisites and credential requirements before selecting a professional level.

Listed by PECB; scheduling and technical requirements apply
This is a Foundation-level individual learning and examination pathway. Follow the course-specific PECB certificate application requirements after passing; the examination and PECB’s issuing decision are separate. It does not award a Lead credential or certify an organisation.
Read the applicable PECB maintenance rules as well as the entry requirements. Professional experience, activity evidence, CPD and maintenance fees are course- and tier-dependent; do not assume another course’s conditions apply.
Original fictional learning example. Not a client case study, official exam question, legal advice or a completed implementation.
Energy management in practice
A manufacturer’s energy bill falls after a production change. The team wants to claim an improvement, but output also fell and the weather changed.
Separate changes in activity from changes in energy performance.
Identify the data and assumptions behind a useful baseline.
Assign responsibility for checking whether an improvement persists.
How should I use this exercise?
Use the scenario to identify the concepts and responsibilities. Explain the difference between a requirement, a process and evidence. This introductory pathway is not a substitute for implementation experience. Write down your assumptions and the evidence you would need before reaching a conclusion. Nothing is submitted, stored or graded.
For New Zealand organisations
Apply the learning in context.
Use the standard’s energy-management approach against the organisation’s own New Zealand sites, equipment and operating data. Course completion is not an energy audit, engineering design or a guaranteed reduction in bills.
Context reference: ISO — 50001. This source does not endorse Aegentra or this course.
Plan, conduct, and lead audits of an energy management system against ISO 50001, in line with ISO 19011 and ISO/IEC 17021-1.

Foundation builds familiarity; implementation and audit pathways develop different responsibilities. Review the prerequisites of each course rather than assuming one is required before another. Browse every Academy course.

We do not infer a pass mark from another course or promise an exam result.
Is this a live online class?+
No. This page offers Self-Study for self-paced online learning. Recorded eLearning is not a scheduled class or a personal instructor session. No live-class or consultancy package is included for this course.
Does passing the exam automatically award the credential?+

Check your voucher dates before scheduling. This is not a promise of 12 months of course-material or lab access.
Does this course guarantee energy savings?+
No. Training develops management-system knowledge, not a guaranteed financial or engineering outcome. Savings depend on the baseline, operating conditions, measures selected and the quality of implementation and measurement. Technical decisions about plant and electrical systems require appropriately competent specialists.
