While copies of the standard will be available for you to refer to throughout the course, we do however reccommend delegates owning copies of both the standards in order to refer to throughout the course and beyond. At IT Governance EU, you can purchase a copy of the ISO27001 (ISO 27001) & ISO27002 (ISO 27002) standards.
