20% OFF the job training is a core requirement of all apprenticeship programmes. It reflects your organisations commitment to your learning, developing and honing of new skills within your role. You will log your development time each month to check you’re on track.

As part of your induction to the programme you will take an online initial assessment which will provide a
profile of your strengths and weaknesses in English & Maths. These will feed into your Individual Learning
Plan (ILP). If you don’t have copies of your GCSE certificates (A*-C) we will support you to complete Functional
Skills Level 2 in English and or Maths.

– All our training is delivered by a CIPD approved expert whether that’s at one of our central London
study venues or live online.
– Our tutors will support you between class and handing in your assignment and provide individual written feedback on all assignments.
– You will have an assessor who will check in monthly and complete workplace visits.

– You must be 18 years old or over and living in England.
– Level 2 English and Maths, grades A to C.
– If you don’t have certificates, we can help you achieve these as part of your personalised training programme.

– The minimum duration of the apprenticeship is 1 year, however you should expect to take approximately 15 months to complete the programme.
– As part of an apprenticeship you will need to spend 20% of your work time on your professional development.
– There are 6 modules at CIPD Certificate Level 3 or Level 5, and most students will aim to complete a module per month.
– Plus, the end-point assessment takes a further 3 months to complete.

During the programme you will complete the following assessments:

– Five or six CIPD accredited assignments combining theory and application
– A continuous professional development (CPD) record
– One-hour professional discussion to a panel of experts including a 15-minute presentation
– A written work-based project on how you’ve applied the learning outcomes within your role
– At Level 3 you will also have in-class skills checks.

An Apprentice will be awarded a fail, pass or distinction. We want you to pass and will support you throughout the assessment process. However, if an apprentice does fail, they are entitled to one resit.

On successful completion of your CIPD Certificate you will receive both a CIPD and Apprenticeship Certificate in recognition of the double qualification.

Organisations with an annual salary bill of £3+ million, will pay into the apprenticeship levy. If your company doesn’t pay into the apprenticeship levy, the government will still fund 95% of the cost of the apprenticeship.
