Chartered CIPD - what is it equivalent to?

Jason Fox

Hello CIPD peeps

I have been asked a few times exactly what the Chartered CIPD qualification is equivalent to in academic terms, and am struggling to evidence this online here.

 Is it a post graduate diploma? At what level is it considered?

 Any pointers helpful - many thanks.

  • I couldnt agree more Liz.

    I have met many people who are "CIPD qualified"...who lets say...dont know what it is actually like to "work at the coalface" and link this forward to a business and its success. These people regrettably seem to continually recycle themselves into businesses, with words which do not match actions in practice. The interim market is flooded with them at the moment in the current economic climate, so I pity the state of businesses which are left with a trail of destruction in their wake. I have had to 'mop up' after a few of them myself in recent years.

    I wish employers would look beyond, but as I said before, sometimes we are victims of other processes of mis-management which do not do us HR people much justice. If I were AssocCIPD for so many years, then what changed when I got the 'Chartered' badge, aside from I was £5k lighter in my pocket?

    * Gets on soapbox*

    Dont even get me started on the inept market forces crushing pay rates for HR people, both interim and perm, at the moment. Whatever grade of CPD, we are becoming valued very poorly and command little room for manoeuvring. I thought this would be HR's most glorious hour, but it seems like its an uphill struggle to be heard and valued. I soldier on despite this of course. Grrrrr.

    *Gets off soap box - thats my Friday rant over...lol*
