About this course
This is an Advanced Level 7 course, so you should have a good level of HR experience and be prepared to undertake postgraduate-level study.
A degree-based educational background would also be beneficial.
If English is your second language, we recommend you have an IELTS 6.5/ESOL Level 2 or equivalent, but we're happy to review your case on an individual basis.
On completion of this course, you'll achieve a CIPD Level 7 Advanced Award in Human Resources, and your certificate from CIPD will reflect this.
The subject you studied will be specified on your attached transcript.

Course programme
The course consists of one module from the CIPD Level 7 Diploma taken as a standalone qualification.
Both the course and assessment are fully online. You'll learn to:
- Explain the core principles that underpin employment law as it applies in the UK, including common law, along with those principles' purposes, origins and practical implications
- Advise colleagues about significant legal implications of decisions, plans or proposals in the employment field
- Advise about the appropriate action that should be taken in workplace scenarios where employment regulation applies
- Play a leading role in determining the appropriate organisational response when legal action on the part of a worker or employee is either anticipated, threatened or taken
- Participate in the preparation, presentation and setting of Employment Tribunal cases
- Keep your knowledge of developments in employment law up to date and advise about the impact of these developments on employment policy and practice in your organisation
If you'd like to study a broader range of topics and prepare for strategic senior HR roles, we recommend the comprehensive Level 7 Diploma or mid-length Level 7 Certificate.
