‘‘CIPD was the obvious choice. They are globally recognised qualifications with an influential network attached. ICS Learn gave me the flexibility to study as-and-when. My tutors were very experienced, and I'm already applying what I learnt.’’
- Xue Bai, Global HR Process Transformation Lead, Vodafone
‘‘Working full-time and having two young children, it was important that I could work at my own pace. My HR Director encouraged me to take this route rather than do an MA, as she felt CIPD was more about applying the theory in practice.’’
- Sarah Watts
‘‘Having a CIPD qualification I feel more confident and more credible in my work. I would highly recommend it to anyone. My tutors are very supportive, knowledgeable and expert, and I received the same quality of teaching as I would in a classroom.’’
- Maria Cristina Araviso

That’s why:
As a rough guide, Level 3 is for those with no or minimal L&D experience. It’s perfect if you’re looking for your first L&D role.
Level 5 is for those with some L&D experience who are looking for a mid-level L&D role. It’s also suitable if you’re new to L&D but have a degree and want to begin your learning at a higher level.
Level 7 is for those with significant HR/L&D experience or an HR degree who are ready to take on postgraduate-level study. It’ll prepare you for strategic senior roles.
However, we know everyone’s situation is different. Our expert CIPD advisors will talk through your experience, education and ambitions to ensure you’re choosing the right course.
