About Course
About IT GRC Training
Hyderabad's HITEC City and Gachibowli carry both large global capability centres and a deep BFSI back-office base. Demand here is driven by parent-company audits out of the US and EU, by RBI and IRDAI obligations on the banking and insurance operations, and by the DPDP Act applying to every consumer data set held in the city.
Hyderabad has also become the place where companies centralise their India compliance function, which means GRC roles here are more likely to be programme-owning than ticket-answering.
This Hyderabad page carries the same 12-week, 72-hour IT GRC Training syllabus, faculty and assessment as the master programme, delivered live online and in hybrid format, with classroom batches at our Thoraipakkam centre.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is IT GRC training?
IT GRC training covers governance, risk and compliance as a single discipline: how an organisation is directed, how uncertainty is assessed and treated, and how it proves it meets its legal and regulatory obligations. The SkilBrill programme builds the capability to run that programme end to end, from policy through controls to audit evidence.
What does the IT GRC syllabus cover?
Eight modules across 72 hours: governance architecture and the three lines of defence, risk management under ISO 31000 and NIST RMF, the regulatory landscape including the DPDP Act, GDPR, SOX and RBI and SEBI requirements, standards such as ISO 27001, ISO 27002, NIST CSF and COBIT, control design and assessment, the internal audit lifecycle, privacy and third-party risk, and a capstone compliance programme with an audit simulation.
What is the duration and fee of the IT GRC course?
The programme runs for 12 weeks with 3 sessions per week of 2 hours each, totalling 72 classroom hours. Fees are ₹45,000 – ₹75,000 depending on the batch and mode. Weekday, weekend and evening batches are available in classroom, live online and hybrid formats.
Which certifications does this course prepare me for?
The curriculum maps to ISO 27001 Lead Auditor, ISACA CISA and (ISC)2 CGRC, plus SkilBrill's own course completion certificate. Exam fees are separate and paid to the awarding body.
What job roles can I pursue after IT GRC training?
Compliance Analyst, GRC Analyst, Information Security Analyst, IT/Internal Auditor, Risk Manager, Privacy Analyst and eventually GRC Manager or Head of Compliance. Typical Indian salary bands run ₹6 – 18 LPA depending on prior experience, with audit and regulated-sector roles at the higher end.
