CIPD Level 7 course

Hello everyone and Happy New Year!

This is my first post and I'm looking or advice on study options and providers for the CPID Level 7 please...

I am a seasoned HR professional but I don't currently hold any specific HR qualifications (I have a bachelors degree in an very unrelated subject and a post-grad in Law). For my own development, I would really like to have something to back up my experience, particularly should I decide to move on from my current role at some point in the future.

I have been looking into doing my Level 7 via the apprenticeship route, but I'm finding it hard to work out who might be the best provider to go with and whether a structured online/in-person course would be better than a self-study/on demand option. For those that have done their Level 7, how did you study for this and did you find it worked well for you? For context, I have a very full on role in an educational setting and a fairly young family, so time to study is probably going to be the biggest issue for me.

I've found a course through BePro that looks interesting (they offer both structured online or self-study) - would anyone have any feedback they would be able to share on this particular provider please? Any other recommendations for other providers to look at/avoid would be much appreciated too.

Many thanks in advance

  • Hi Ruth I am happy to arrange a call to explore the various CIPD options if that would help. Jackie
  • Hello Ruth,

    I am currently doing an apprenticeship through work for CIPD level 3. I am doing it through an online platform Babington. Its structured, you have an organiser who is assigned to you. They interact through a hub where most of your course work takes place, along emails, teams, online learnings and on the job learnings. there is a glide path so you cans see progress clearly.

    All the best in your search.

    Regards

  • Hi, I know this isn't exactly what you asked but if it's just the qualification you are after you can go through experience assessment to gain this. That's what I did and it's tough but was more effective for me to get the qualification after so many years in HR
