CIPD Level 5 Online Service Providers - your experiences and feedback, please

David Kendrick

Good Evening Everyone,

I'm rather new to the CIPD Community and am really looking for advice and feedback so please be gentle.

I've decided to have a slight career direction change in my life.  I've decided to follow my passion for people and to study for a CIPD Level 5 Diploma in HR online. I have a good educational background and a second class upper degree (Business Studies) so am not frightened of study or hard work. As a recent new father I feel this will give me the most benefit and flexibility as well.

Being the analytical person that I am, I've done lots of research into training provides such as ICS Learning or Developing People Group (DPG) or Avado. All are approximately the same price.

So what I'm really after is your own experiences, the good, the bad and the ugly with either of the three providers ICS Learning or Developing People Group (DPG) or Avado.

Any and all experiences and feedback very welcome. Thank you in advance.

  • Hi David,

    I recently completed my CIPD L&D Level 3 with DPG and would not recommend them. I can see that you are leaning towards other providers and know that I did a different course but most of the issues were based around organisation and communication (and I know that some of the tutors deliver both.) I also found the eLearning modules to be poorly written with little attention to detail and some fundamental programming flaws. Many links were also expired or out of date.

    Good luck with your studies.
