my name's Susie Morris I'm currently a
0:06
HR administrator studying my Foundation
0:10
certificate in pupil practice studying
0:12
my qualification has given me a massive
0:14
boost in confidence so being able to
0:16
have better conversations with not only
0:20
my peers but with the employee groups
0:23
when they ask me questions I can give
0:25
them succinct answers
0:27
conversations with directors and again a
0:31
Rolling Out programs that I know that
0:34
I've got to get behind and have the
0:35
confidence to start and stick with and
0:39
see through it's been a massive boost my
0:42
name's Roberta I'm currently a HR
0:44
advisor and Associate member of the cipd
0:48
I was ecstatic to have actually passed
0:51
it and having a four-year-old child also
0:55
working partly on furlough with the
0:58
whole covered world as it was then
1:01
um it was such a great achievement that
1:03
I'd actually managed to sit down and and
1:05
do it for myself the tutor support was
1:08
amazing from my study center they were
1:10
really helpful and once I started
1:13
studying it all came flooding back and
1:15
it was sort of a rolling ball and I
1:17
progressed from there it gives you a
1:19
much greater understanding of HR
1:21
practices from legislation from l d to
1:25
Recruitment and everything in between
1:27
studying for the qualification and it
1:30
was really hard at first just because I
1:33
hadn't studied for 13 years but I think
1:36
the way it's mapped out for you is is
1:39
really good the way it's in multiple
1:41
modules
1:45
the most valuable resource to me is the
1:49
networking so for me personally I I
1:52
network with the Sussex cipd and the
1:56
magazines that you get sent through the
1:58
pose which is associated with your
2:00
membership which again a very current
2:03
also the fact that you know the website
2:06
is there so you can ask it anything and
2:09
you can find the answer student
2:11
memberships benefited Me by giving me
2:14
access to A Whole New World of content

everything that the cipd website can
2:25
offer my tutor
2:27
