No. The Certificate of Completion is a training certificate: it shows that one person completed ISO/IEC 27002:2022 Information Security Controls and reached the pass mark in its final exam. It is not certification of an organisation to ISO/IEC 27001, and Sterling does not certify organisations. An organisation is certified by an independent certification body after that body's own audit.
