Level 5 - Level 7

Me too. I would love to do my Level 7 but sadly not got the £5,400 needed to pay for it and currently not working.

Hopefully I will secure a role soon and maybe my employer will support this for me.

I studied with DPG for the Level 5 and would do so again for the Level 7.

Hi Lisa, Cost was a big factor for me too. I originally studied with MOL and would have loved to have signed up with them again however ICS offer a much more competitive repayment structure with as little as £100 deposit then interest free over 44 months making the repayments as little as £150 I believe - and I understand you can pay extra at any time and either re-schedule the monthly payments or the term of the "loan". That is the only way I am able to think about this for the moment as I am self funding. Good luck in the job hunt and hopefully you can get support from your employer but if not, have a look at ICS. I have found the staff really helpful so far.

Thank you Becky. Really useful info. I just can't justify the monthly cost unfortunately. Fingers crossed I can get a job soon with an employer who supports this.

I have looked into the Level 7 myself and having the same thoughts about the cost. I am wondering if the price has gone up since the CIPD introduced the new courses (I am not sure), but my local University did a Masters degree for less of a cost than the CIPD Level 7.
