Partially completed CIPD L5 - should I try again?

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 G

  • I had major Avado issues, but that aside, I found I was regularly working ten hour days (my usual full-time role plus completing assignments) in order to finish. This went on for a good year. The workload was really excessive and not what was advertised. Having said that, I am glad I've got the qualification under my belt, I didn't learn much but have noticed most jobs ask for it at my level (or relevant experience, so perhaps it was worthless!)
