Chartered CIPD - what is it equivalent to?

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 recently completed the Certificate in HR Practice (although still waiting on formal acknowledgement and certification from CIPD).  I understand that I can now apply for Associate membership, which I plan to do, but am I now a Graduate member, rather than a Student member? Or is Gradute relative to a higher level of qualification?


     I think I have enough experience to complete the upgrade to Associate, but I believe I can't apply to do this until CIPD mark me off as having completed the Certificate....
