Unlock a world of possibilities without leaving the area with Telford College’s higher education provision, including an extensive CIPD qualification in human resources.

The course is perfect for those looking to start a career in the field of human resources, progress their current career or upskill in order to expand their knowledge within a very progressive sector.

Learners can master topics such as organisational performance, culture in practice, professional behaviours, employment relationship management, workforce planning and much more in this university level programme.

Any students may be eligible for a student loan to cover the cost of tuition fees for the course too, allowing them to expand their skillset without the worry of covering the costs.

Former student Tammy Roberts chose to study the course so she can progress in her career at Proteus Switchgear, based in Telford. “I’ve always had an interest in moving into people management and felt that the time was right to study the level five CIPD course”

“As well as the content, I liked that the course was a balance of online and in-person sessions at college. My tutor, Ann, was really supportive while I was getting to grips with studying after many years away from education. She made the classes enjoyable and helped interpret the subject into easy-to-understand lessons.

“This was the first time I had done any further education. I enjoyed being part of a group of people all working towards the same goal and being able to share experiences and knowledge as we were all at different stages in life and careers.

“I have now made the move into people management at work from an operational management position. Having studied the people management course, I now have the knowledge needed to make better decisions.”

Telford College’s Senior HR advisor, Sarah Corns, is flourishing after studying our CIPD programme – find out more.

Ann Dollaghan, CIPD lecturer at Telford College, said: “When it comes to HR training, CIPD qualifications stand out as the most respected and widely recognised credentials in the UK and globally.

“Telford College offers a hybrid approach where you have direct access to a qualified lecturer who offers one to one support when needed.

“While other HR certifications and in-house training programmes may cover similar topics, a CIPD qualification carries far more credibility in the eyes of employers.”
