Starting Level 5 CIPD Diploma in HRM

Lila Sophia

Hi all! I need a bit of guidance please, I am hopefully starting my Level 5 diploma in HRM soon with AVADO but don’t have loads of HR experience - will I struggle? I have level 3 business qualifications and Law A-level but I’m not 100% sure! Any guidance will be appreciated. Thank you :)

  • Hi Lila,

    I completed my level 5 through ICS Learn last year with no HR experience apart from recruitment and found it to be challenging but very doable, I had to discipline myself really strictly at nights and sometimes at the week to keep my reading up to date and allow me to present a balanced viewpoint in my assessments.

    Employment law in particular is something I would do more prior reading on before starting the topic if I was doing it again.

    Hi David, I have no experience in HR but want to get into this field. I'm 27 so I'm wondering what is the most effective route. With ICS, how long did it take you to complete your level 5? Did you study full time or part time online?

    Hi Natasha,

    Apologies for the delayed reply.

    If you are really organised and have the time you can apparently achieve it in 9 months and I probably could have done this had I put more time pressure on myself, instead I spread it out over about 15 months which was online in my spare time after work and at weekends. The assignments themselves I found to be alright it was more the prior reading to ensure I had enough content and reference points.

    Keep in touch, happy to help.
