Further Qualifications outside of CIPD

Hi People Profession Network,

I'm a HR professional looking to invest in some further training soon. I'm a real advocate for learning and want to invest in studying towards a new qualification in the new year. 

Here are my current credentials:

  • Chartered MCIPD
  • Agile Project Management Practitioner
  • Been doing self-directed learning via LinkedIn Learning since 2018

Here are my drivers:

  • Want to learn something useful that I will tap into regularly as a HR professional - e.g. I use Agile regularly when running HR projects
  • Want to boost my profile and credbility - e.g. I studied Agile so I could gain credibility when working for an IT consultancy, I was able to talk the same "language" as my technical stakeholders
  • Gain a broader set of skills

My day job:

  • I work in Talent Acquisition but come from a generalist background.
  • My job is hybrid consisting of 80% TA and 20% OD
  • I connect the dots between recruitment, career development and learning and development
  • I also act as investigating officer in ER matters

I am keen to know which other qualifications outside of the CIPD, HR professionals have found helpful.

Some of the key quals I have looked at include CMI, ILM, and Insights.

Your thoughts are welcomed! Thank you so much in advance
