Human Resources

After working in recruitment for a little while, I wanted an exciting career change! I have always had an interest in HR and it seemed like a great transition as a lot of HR roles involve recruitment.
When I got put on furlough in the middle of the pandemic, I decided to make the most of the free time by starting the CIPD Level 5 HR course; the qualification that most HR management positions look for.
When researching learning providers to undertake the course with, ICS Learn really stood out. Their team were very friendly, approachable and informative. They were the best value for money and even beat the cheapest quote I could find! They set up a very affordable monthly payment for the course too as I couldn’t afford to pay for it all upfront.
"The support from ICS Learn and the tutors has been fantastic. There are tons of resources and information available for each assignment, and weekly classes to talk you through each assignment with the opportunity to ask questions."
The classes are also recorded so you can listen to them in your own time. There are also forums and the tutors answer any questions you may have efficiently. They also read through drafts of assignments and offer any advice before you submit them.
I know other learning providers give date deadlines for each assignment which can be stressful and so I was grateful there were no specific deadlines with ICS Learn.
The course has greatly improved my knowledge of HR and has helped me to understand what is required of me as a HR practitioner. During the course I contacted a local charity and started volunteering with their HR team to gain more internal experience.
I am excited to learn and grow with the charity using the knowledge I have learnt in the course to make a difference.
Thank you ICS Learn for all your support!
