Who pays for your CIPD costs?

Celia

Hi All

I am trying to find out the following: if your company has contributed towards the cost of your CIPD course or if they paid half, part or all of it?

Just trying to get an idea of bench-mark, the CIPD schools/centers dont have this information.

Thanks

Celia

  • When I did my CPP this was paid for by the organisation, but with claw back and I left just before the end of the claw back period and therefore had to pay back the full amount. The professional subscription was reclaimed on expenses (the company had a policy that all employees could claim for 1 professional membership per year).

    Anticipating the claw back on the CPP, when I started my DHRM/level 7  I chose to pay for that myself (the org would have done, but with a claw back term). I was allowed time off to attend classes. I actually applied for and received a scholarship, and as most of the course attendants were funded by their organisation I think the scholarships are often overlooked by students. It was a good option for me as it meant I ended up paying less than I would have done under the claw-back study agreement.

    I changed role between the 1st and 2nd years of the course, and my new employer (who was not contributing towards course costs) allowed me to take the time off for the course but it had to be made up on another day. They were flexible to allow me to attend the course, but did not support it financially or allowing the time off from the working day.
