We’re excited to share that the 2026 PCI SSC training schedule is now live through December, and registration is officially open! A new year brings new opportunities — and there’s no better way to invest in your professional growth than by strengthening your expertise in payment security.

Secure Your Spot Early

Registration for all 2026 courses is limited, and classes fill quickly. 

Whether you’re looking to deepen your own knowledge or elevate the skills of your entire team, our instructor-led courses offer direct access to the experts who shape PCI Security Standards. These sessions are designed to help you stay ahead of evolving requirements, sharpen your technical understanding, and build the confidence needed to support your organization’s compliance and security goals.

In‑person trainings are also available alongside our three 2026 Community Meetings. Held in Vancouver, Edinburgh, and Kuala Lumpur, these meetings are open to the entire payments community and provide an excellent opportunity to maximize both training and travel budgets by pairing your team’s training with a Community Meeting.

If you’re curious about the real-world impact PCI training can have, take a look at our recent WestJet case study, where the airline shares how Internal Security Assessor (ISA) training strengthened their security posture and improved collaboration across teams. It’s a powerful example of how organizations can turn PCI education into long-term operational value.

Start the year with momentum. Strengthen your skills. Empower your team. And take the next step in your career with PCI SSC.
