CIPD Level 5 - UIN5 - Using information in HR

Hi All 

Is anyone currently studying UIN5 or has studied this recently? I am really really struggling with this subject and i'm getting quite upset that i can get my head around it. I have already completed 3 assignments for my level 5 and although they have all be challenging i have been able to understand the purpose and goal and produce what i feel is a high quality piece of work but this module seems to have gone completely over my head so much so that i cant even think of a subject to investigate.

Does anyone have any advice on the following:

  • Creating a research question in relation employee health an well being? 
  • Examples of 4 different information resources i should use for my critical review? I think i know what i need to do for this bit but i would be interested to know if your suggestions are the same as what i think is suitable. 
  • What are some different research methods i could compare? 

My tutor has gone over all these things but i have had a very busy and stressful month since the new year and my concentration levels and information intake has been lacking. I would be really grateful on any steer you could give me. 

Thank you so much in advance.

  • Hi Victoria, I am just starting 5UIN so I'm willing to help you in anyway I can. I'm studying with a local college though so our assessments might be slightly different. I am thinking about doing mine on reducing sick absence in my workplace. My tutor has given us a suggested layout for the report which I'm happy to share with you if you give me your email address.
    I've been told to think about what is going to be my sources of primary research e.g. questionnaires, focus groups and what is going to be my sources of secondary research e.g. absence management information. The guidance I've been given is to have 2 of each primary and secondary.
  • Hi Fiona, I appreciate this is a late reply, I am really struggling with this unit and home learning, would you mind sharing the layout with me? I was Planning to write about absence management policies, and feel I have lost my way with this one!
