Hi all,

I am new to this community and reading through the threads makes me feel that this is a very supportive community.

I am thinking to start my study of CIPD level 7 and still not sure which provider to choose. I have checked with ICS learn and they seems attractive but also seeing negative reviews on them.

Based on your experiences, could you please share with me either I should go with ICS Learn or MOL or other provider?

Thank you for your kind advice.

Hi Laura,

A few things I always advise people to consider with different providers for Level 7
- how you learn best: do you want an e-learning option (e.g. ICS) or a more supported route where you work with tutors and peers (Acacia Learning or MOL). Also, if you go for an option with live sessions do they fit around work / life
- what module options are being offered by the provider and do they cover what you want to specialise in?
- Level 7 is a big jump, what support is in place to ensure you succeed
- it's a big time investment, what are you getting from the provider other than just the content and assignment

Different providers work for different needs. It's worth spending the time on investigating. They should also offer you the chance to sample a session or the resources.

Hope that helps

Hi Rachel,

I have studied with ICS and my partner has studied with MOL.

Based on my experience and what I have seen with my partner's experience, MOL is much better. The feedback you receive on your assignments is much more substantive. The feedback you receive with ICS Learn isn't great and the tutors are very hit and miss.

Kind regards,

Jacob
