Studying for Level 7

Hi,

I have 10 years experience in HR, as an HR Assistant. I also have some experience in learning and development which is useful.

I was wondering if anyone has experience of studying a level 7 qualification whilst full time in a job, training for HR Business Partner or similiar? I know when I studied for Level 5, and working full time (not being able to do it when working, it was so difficult). I haven't really used my Level 5 yet, as I changed to learning and development

Presumably with Level 7, you get chances to re-sit the assignments if need be. I am wondering if you would have to study a lot when not working?

If anyone has any insight or experience, i appreciate.

Thanks

  • Hi Cheryl, I’ve just finished the level 7 so am well placed to advise. I did the course with ICS and they give you 24 months to complete 8 modules. It’s possible to complete in less, but as I worked full time throughout and do a big daily commute, I completed in 23 months. You can submit the modules in any order, and you receive feedback within 2 weeks for the modules without a deadline, and one week for those with a deadline. I referred on one module and had 7 days to turn it around and resubmit. In terms of time dedicated, I spent almost 2 hours per night every night, and a little bit of time on the weekend when on ‘assignment mode’. I hope this is useful.
