Hi,
I have recently started studying CIPD Level 5, and I am stuck with Unit 1. Can someone please assist me with what I should include in the first assignment as I feel like I’m a bit all over the place currently.
I am currently studying with ICS Learn.
Thank you for your support in advance
I was on here looking for help with unit 2 (which I skipped and have now had to come back to!) when I saw your message. Here is my contents page from my summative assignment for unit 1 - I am also studying with ICS. I'm slow though so I should warn you this is from 2018, it might have changed!
For the elements in 1.4 use the CIPD profession map tool to identify elements to discuss - use ones you feel show a sliding scale of understanding e.g. you know nothing about talent planning but have lots of experience in org design.
Good luck!

Hi Jodie,
Thanks for this. I am struggling with 4.1 at the moment. and more specifically with "Undertake a self assessment against the L&D specialist knowledge area of the CIPD 2018 Map"
Did you self assess against all areas of L&D at the associate level?
Hi Argyo,
Sorry, I was doing the HRM course and had to use the older version of the profession map I think. Sounds as though you need to look at each element under the L&D heading and assess yourself, you could use all levels to decide where your current skills sit for each element. BUT I'm probably not the best person to ask I'm afraid!
Good luck,
Jodie
