Can you skip level 5 and go straight to 7?

Hello,

I completed my level 3 HR certificate October last year (and passed - woo!). I really enjoyed learning and the added insight it gave me when working in my organisation. Looking at what is covered in level 5 it is the same subjects but in more detail. Is it feasible to jump to level 7?

Thank you for your help and guidance with this!

Best wishes,

Frances

  • There are lots of similar posts if you want to use the search facilities.

    Academically you can of course skip anything and as long as you have the academic ability still get the badge for doing the higher level. You can probably succeed in getting your shinny new level 7 award. (although its not really advisable practically unless you are already working in a job that allows you to practice many of the skills )

    But you will miss out on some very valuable learning and experience along the way and this could well harm your long term career.
