Hi
I have 2 confirmed completed modules of my CIPD L5 with ICS however dropped out due to financial and a family health scare a few years ago, please could I have some advice on the below:
- I started my L5 with ICS, after previously completing my L3 in 2019 with them, however (in 2021) I found almost everything about them to be sub par (Inc feedback, lessons, site layout and general information given). What are your feedback on what they are like now?
- What are your thoughts on ICS learn learning provider compared to AVADO/DPG
- Recommended reading material for this course?
I have a daughter who is nearly 2, work full time and have a husband/family that are supportive, however monthly disposable income and free time is limited therefore wouldn’t want to pay for something if it still hasn’t got the best feedback. At the moment ICS are looking like the cheapest option for me.
Thanks

Hi Grace. I'm currently with ICS. They are awful and I would avoid them at all costs. You might want to join the various L5 Facebook groups and search for 'ICS' in the groups and you will see that students consistently have the same issues with them. I would also advise looking at the 1 and 2 star Trustpilot reviews (ignore the 4 and 5 star reviews as these are only about the signing up process - ICS ask people to write a review when they sign up). In the various Facebook groups I'm in, people seem very positive about Avado but it's best to link in with students who are studying with them for info. Avado do price match so you could always ask them to price match ICS's price.
