The apprenticeship covers the following units:

How is the apprenticeship delivered?

Assessment for this qualification is carried out via written and practical assignment tasks and comprises of one assignment per module. The CIPD qualification is classroom-based and weekly attendance at college is mandatory. Once you have completed all on-programme learning, have been deemed competent in the required skills, knowledge and behaviours listed above, and have completed a minimum course duration, you will be put through to the gateway for End-Point Assessment (EPA). As part of your EPA, you will need to complete a consultative project, which contains a range of evidence demonstrating that you have met the required knowledge and skills. You will also take part in a professional discussion that will explore the specific skills and behaviours set out in the apprenticeship standard.

What will the course lead on to?

Perhaps you are working in a generalist role, providing support across a range of HR areas. In this case, you will likely be taking the core HR option of this qualification. Alternatively, you could be working in a specialist role, where you focus on and have in depth expertise in a specific area of HR such as resourcing, total reward, organisation development, or HR operations. Whichever of these options is chosen, you will receive good grounding across the whole range of HR disciplines. You will be influencing managers to change their thinking as well as bringing best practice into the organisation. You are also likely to lead the people related elements of business or HR projects. In a larger organisation you may be one of a team supporting the business and you may also have responsibility for managing people.

What support is available?

You will be allocated a designated tutor to guide you through your apprenticeship. We have a team of staff dedicated to providing learning support if required, as well as a Welfare Team that is on hand to offer guidance, support and help when needed.
