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.

  • It is my understanding that Certificate of HR Practice does not lead to Associate Membership. Graduate membership applied to people who had completed the old PDS (level 7) qualification, but did not have the requisite practical experience. I think that the old Licentiate (Pople who had completed the first two Level 7 modules) and Graduate have been combined into Assoc CIPD.

    I do believe in the value of the CIPD qualification personally, I think it demonstrates a commitment to the profession, and so I prefer my Senior team members to be qualified, however having all of that knowledge is not much use, if people are unable to relate it to the work environment. 

    It did seem for a while that the CIPD were giving away the family silver (giving the postgraduate level - Graduate CIPD - away to people who were studying at degree level) although it seems it has been repositioned in recent years.
