2 CIPD Level 5 when on career break

10 Mar, 2019 20:13

Hi, i'm wondering if there is anyone in the same situation as me. I have taken a career break since having twins almost 3 years ago. I therefore haven't attended a workplace for almost 3 years and i'm struggling with the DVP assignment for Level 5 CIPD. I don't have practical experience of a lot of the content which is proving difficult when completing my assignment.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

Gillian

you can use your last workplace before you had the little ones. i am in work but not in HR so i have to look at the assignments as an outsider of HR. from employees point of view on what HR should be. hope that helps

Hi Gillian,

I am on the same boat, on a 6 yr career break for family reasons. How did you find the course? How did you manage DVP and the other modules? Any useful tips and pointers? I have just started with DVP and am struggling to come up with relevant examples and their detailed analysis. I had very little Associate level experience before I took the break, most of my experience was in HR Admin. I tool up the course in a bid to update myself but now wondering if I made a mistake.

Thanks
