Programme Design and Overview This apprenticeship is aimed at HR professionals who are responsible for developing and achieving organisational HR outcomes aligned to their organisational strategy. The qualification will provide successful learners with enhanced knowledge and understanding of the management of Human Resources, offering opportunities to progress further in their careers.
Indicative Content

At least 20% of your working week for the duration of the apprenticeship must be spent carrying out new learning relating to the apprenticeship standards. To support you in achieving this, you will study the CIPD Level 5 Associate Diploma in People Management covering the following topics:

• Organisational performance and culture in practice
• Evidence-based practice
• Professional behaviours and valuing people
• Employment relationship management
• Talent management and workforce planning
• Reward for performance and contribution
• Learning and Development Essentials

Delivery Methods

The CIPD Level 5 Associate Diploma in People Management is delivered online via MS Teams on a modular basis over the duration of the apprenticeship. Each module is delivered using a range of techniques including; lectures, case studies, discussions, guest speakers and organisational visits and self-study.

Work based learning is also required to provide you with opportunities to stretch and develop your knowledge, skills and behaviours linked to the apprenticeship standards. This could be achieved through formal training, shadowing and mentoring and through the expansion of role responsibilities. All learning must be recorded to demonstrate you are achieving at least 20% of your working week to off the job learning, a requirement of the apprenticeship. This will be discussed and agreed with you and your employer at the start of the apprenticeship. 

Nature of Assessments on the Programme

The knowledge element of the apprenticeship is continuously assessed with no end examination. Successful completion of all assignments and class-based work will result in the award of the CIPD Level 5 Associate Diploma in People Management.

In addition to this, your apprenticeship assessor will also carry out regular 1-2-1 assessments such as observations, Q&A’s and professional discussions either remotely or in your workplace at mutually convenient times. These assessments will provide evidence of you demonstrating the knowledge, skills and behaviours using practical working examples required to meet the Level 5 HR Consultant/Partner apprenticeship standards.

To achieve the apprenticeship in full, you must firstly achieve your CIPD Level 5 Associate Diploma in People Management, then complete an End Point Assessment made up of two components; a 5,000-word consultative project and a professional discussion, both of which demonstrate you meeting the apprenticeship standards within your role. Your End Point Assessment is assessed by the CIPD.

Entry Requirements

It is expected that level 5 apprentices will have significant experience of working within a current HR role that is progressing into a more senior HR Consultant/Business Partner role to ensure they have the suitable foundations on which to further build their knowledge and skills.

Certificate evidence of English and maths at level 2 or GCSE grade A*-C (or new grade 9-4). If you do not have these, we can support the development of your English and maths skills through completion of Functional Skills in the relevant subject and one-to-one support. Most employers look for ability in these areas and the majority of university courses require you to have Maths and English GCSEs at A*-C (or new grade 9-4). This is why the development of Maths and English is so important, whatever your field of study.

Attendance Expectations

Once enrolled onto this apprenticeship, you will be required to attend remotely taught sessions for the CIPD Level 5 Associate Diploma in People Management.

You are also required to meet regularly with your apprenticeship assessor (either remotely or in your place of work) for reviews on progress and workplace assessments to take place.

If you are undertaking Functional Skills as part of your apprenticeship, you will be required to attend Castleford Campus for a week block of teaching, per Functional Skill subject. This will be discussed at your enrolment and induction.

Attendance - Please note

The length of this apprenticeship should typically be 2-3 years, but could be closer to 18 months if the apprentice has previously completed the Level 3 apprenticeship.
