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.

  • Hi Louise, it will be little consolation, but I am in the same boat (ACEL but not MCIPD).

    Fortunately, I've never knowingly been turned down for a job because of my lack of letters, which is just as well because I'm a useless student!  

    Sadly, so many qualifications seem like the Holy Grail until you have them.  Then you need more experience or some other just-of-of-reach criterion.  GCSEs to A Levels, then A levels to Degrees, and so on.  I feel sorry for the recent crop of graduates who rather than being one in ten are one in two, so then unless they have a first....etc.

    Trying to be a regular on this forum is probably the best continuos development I've ever had, judging by the quantity of things I look up because I don't necessarily know the full answer.
