I was looking for a provider where I could complete my level 5 CIPD online and in my own time around work and other commitments. HRC online offered various plans and I chose the Express option, as I wanted to get it done as soon as I could.

The initial 2 week trial was fantastic as it allowed me to see what sort of content was available, without committing at that stage. The support I received from my tutor was excellent. I often emailed in the evenings or over weekends for advice, and she would reply asap with a thorough and helpful response, and was also available for video calls to discuss queries.

The content is targeted towards the assignments and makes completing the assignments straightforward and as pain-free as possible!

I would highly recommend this company and am really grateful to them!

I'm so glad I chose HRC Online for my Level 5 CIPD qualification, having previously reached out to many other providers beforehand. I decided on them as their team seemed the most friendly, personable, and passionate and I wasn't wrong.

It can be challenging returning to study after a long time, but I'm genuinely so grateful to those at HRC Online for setting up a course that is learner-focused and keeps you inspired throughout the journey. The content they provide is extensive and engaging, there is a wealth of related material that comes with each section and the tutor videos are really informative.

There are so many course providers out there, and I think it's really important to shout-out those who put learners front and centre, and who genuinely want to provide informative, considered and engaging content that helps students succeed.

I can't recommend HRC Online highly enough.

I'm delighted to put my support behind HRC Online, James Dean and his team. He's offering a unique and innovative learning experience and I like how he has engaged with the learners and also brings the topics to life by using real world examples and getting in seasoned practitioners to talk through topics. I wish I had that when I was studying. I've been on some of the chats but i've also learned a lot myself from taking part and listening.

LET'S TALK HR!

Dynamic content with you in mind!

The world moves at a thousand miles an hour, and HR professionals need to think about ever-evolving local and global issues, especially when studying for a HR qualification.

However, an academic syllabus changes every 7/10 years, so a training provider does not need to update their syllabus to include current affairs!

This isn’t good enough!

Instead of delivering the same slides every week and calling them live classes, we host a LIVE webcast called LET’S TALK HR! taking learning outcomes from the CIPD syllabus and talking about current affairs with thought leaders and innovators in the industry. 

We are the ONLY provider who delivers live open-source content focused on current affairs!
