Which level CIPD course is best for me?

Jennifer

Hi all

I have worked in HR for around 18 months as a HR Administrator but have had a lot of exposure to a lot of different elements of HR not just your standard admin - KPIs, audits, disciplinaries, absence management meetings and your usual hr admin - onboarding, inductions, new starters, leavers, holidays, general enquiries, recruitment, agencies, training.

I also have law degree and studied employment law.

Do you think I would be ready to study CIPD, if so - what level? I wouldn't want to waste my time doing Level 3 if a lot of it might be things i already know.

Any advise would be appreciated.

Thanks

Jenny

    I would really think about the investment you are about to make.
    You already have a law degree so despite your current job role I would advise the Advanced Diploma.
    This is the only qualification that enables you to upgrade to a Chartered Member. It takes 18 months to complete during which time you will have 3 years of experience.
    If you select the Intermediate qualification you will become an Associate Member and then need to start the Advance Diploma from scratch. It is the time and cost that I feel you need to be aware off.
    You have demonstrated your academic ability with your degree and by doing the Advanced Diploma you will be able to use your newly acquired knowledge to relate it to your current role.
