Level 7 Diploma in HRM (Distance Learning) - Should I start with the core modules or optional units?

John

I have just signed up to study CIPD Level 7 Diploma in HRM with ICS Learn.  They have suggested starting with the optional modules.  I'm not sure if there is any particular reason for this.

I would welcome feedback from anyone who has completed or who is currently studying what their thoughts are on the best way forward.

I am tempted to leave the core modules towards the end of the course to prolong the anxiety of having to sit exams for the first time in twenty odd years!

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

  • Hi John
    I would strongly recommend that you do the optional modules first for several reasons
    1 You will get used to the terminology used
    2 When you do your assignment it will help you later in the exams as you will be used to the Command words used in the exams
    3 The optional units feed into the 2 examined modules - for example Employee Engagement is part of Managing and Leading People (LMP) and also Human Resources in Context (HRC)
    I hope this helps.
    Kind regards
