About to embark on L7 and would like some help Re: Study materials

Hi all,

it has been a while since I last posted however, I always find the support that I receive from these forums to be invaluable. 

I have just enrolled with Watson Martin to undertake my level 7 and I am about to get underway with my first assignment (7HR03). When it comes to referencing there are some recommended reading materials however these books do come with a significant cost. I want to avoid my assignments becoming to CIPD centric so looking for some pointers to online journals that I could access if at all possible?

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Many thanks,

Lee

  • Thanks so much for your response David, I have been provided with reading materials however these are mainly CIPD fact sheets, and whilst these more than likely contain any information I would need to reference, I’m always conscious of including other resources. I will take a look at the CIPD library too, thanks again!

  • Sadly maybe the CIPD is the first reference point for level 7. I teach it so ought to know. Having said that text books ought to be the first point of reference but people do not go into libraries (or bookshops) as much as they should do.
    The third reference point ought to be ACAS and I would recommend the SHRM for a different perspective. After that it might be academic articles
    Every year I have to labour the point with students that at least in Emp Law CIPD and ACAS ought to have at least 2 refrences in each answer but still the less good ones do not bother!
