COURSE OVERVIEW
Successful employers know that continuing growth, productivity and the ability to retain valuable employees rely on providing effective training opportunities. Our range of CIPD Apprenticeship programmes is the perfect way for you to develop and retain your talent.
This apprenticeship provides HR professionals with an excellent platform to upskill and further progress their careers in Human Resources. The Apprenticeship Standards can be used for existing HR employees within mid-level and senior roles who are managing complex projects, HR practices and are influencing managers to change their thinking as well as bringing best practices into the organisation. It can also be used for new employees, such as graduates who are looking to build a career within HR.
Apprentices are likely to be working in a generalist role, where they provide support across a range of HR areas; or a specialist role with a depth of expertise in areas such as Recruitment, Reward, Diversity & Inclusion, Employee Wellbeing & Relations, Organisational Development, Learning & Development or HR Operations.

FURTHER INFORMATION
You must have an employer in place and be in a suitable administration role that covers the themes in the course information tab to complete this apprenticeship.
All prospective new apprentices will complete an initial assessment of their current knowledge skills and behaviours through a skill scan. This must indicate that there is substantial new knowledge skills and behaviours to be learnt by completing this apprenticeship.
A prospective apprentice will also need to show that they are currently working at or towards the minimum L2 skills for Maths and English. Where a learner has not already achieved GCSE grade 4 to 9 (A-C ) or equivalent Level 2 English and Maths Functional Skills, they must do so before taking the end-point assessment.
Successful completion of this standard enables the apprentice to apply to become an Associate Member of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development. Chartered membership can be achieved through further qualifications or experience based assessment.
This apprenticeship could be an entry level role to the business, however, it is more likely to be a progression from a lower level role or apprenticeship, building on the knowledge and skills gained in that role or apprenticeship. On completion of this apprenticeship, the individual will be fully competent in the role and this will give them an in depth knowledge of HR in their chosen option. They can then continue to develop in that option (perhaps through a further apprenticeship), or broaden their HR expertise in another area to develop their career. Separately, there are a range of qualifications available for further study up to post graduate level.
You will be assessed throughout your course via practical activity observations, academic coursework and industry placements. Assessments are based around ‘real-life’ projects and industry or workplace scenarios including work experience. Your final grade will be awarded as pass, merit or distinction.
There is no cost to an apprentice.
If you are an employer employing an apprentice over the age 21 (without an EHCP) then you are likely to pay 5% towards the training cost.
If you are an employer with an Apprenticeship levy (i.e. your payroll exceeds £3 Million) then you will pay in full from your levy account.
You will need to be a student member of the CIPD for the duration of the apprenticeship. Cost of membership is approx. £145.00. This will need to be in place by the end of week 4 of the course.
