Is it possible to go from Level 3 to Level 7?

Alice

Good evening,

I have recently completed and achieved my CIPD Level 3 Foundation in People Practice, studying with ICS Learn. I am now looking at what to do next as my employer has advised they would be happy to fund further study utilising the apprenticeship levy. 

I'm just wondering if it is realistically possible to go straight to Level 7? For context, I do currently work in HR and have several years of experience, albeit in junior roles.

Looking for some advice and feedback from anyone who has maybe gone straight to Level 7 from Level 3 or been in a similar situation. 

Thank you!

  • Hi Alice
    I usually take into account a few factors when advising on this. It can be done but Level 7 is designed for senior HR professionals so it will depend on your role and other experience plus previous academic study as to whether you will benefit from the course. It will usually be better to do Level 5 first for most people. Happy to advise more specifically if you want to get in touch direct. Jackie

    Hey Jackie, thank you for taking the time to reply! I do have an undergraduate degree so I am familiar with academic study, but don't currently have any senior HR experience. Would you recommend I go onto Level 5 first?

    Hi Alice - these courses are designed as building blocks and we have some experienced HR professionals on Level 3 for very good reasons so I would need to know a bit more about you and your goals before confirming your options. Happy to weigh up the pros and cons of each with you to help inform your decision. If you would like to arrange please DM me. Have a great day! Jackie
