Finally 'Chartered' via the Experience Assessment route!

Miriam

So.... I have been an Associate member for years as, for personal reasons, I didn't finish the whole of what is now the Level 7 course.

I finally got my act together and decided to apply for the experience assessment rather than start the whole course again and still have to have the assessment!

Results are through today - and I've passed!! Finally Chartered!!  Such a relief!  We are going through an incredibly busy time at work and so much went wring while I was completing the assessment.  The hard work paid off!! 

Won't be able to celebrate for a few days but definitely deserve a glass of bubbly!

So if you are thinking about routes - go for it - the timing is never right - and it is a considered cost!  But - I think it was worth it in the end!

  • Did you have a mentor to help you with completing your application?
    I've been meaning to get round to it for about a year now but haven't found the drive to do it. I feel sure I have more than enough relevant experience but I work in a stand alone role and so won't get much senior guidance at work.

    Hi Emma,

    I didn't have a mentor and we have been going through a major re-shape at work so couldn't really have any support.

    I really would encourage you to do it. I am more than happy to be a sounding block if you need one to support you through it. I know the CIPD have 'mentors' but they come at a cost!
