Apprentices can choose to study the Level 3 CIPD Diploma in Learning and Development. Modules include:

• Becoming an Effective Learning and Development Practitioner
• Identifying Learning and Development Needs
• Designing Learning and Development Activities
• Delivering Learning and Development Activities

Each module will be assessed with a written assignment of 2000-3000 words.

Apprentices will be taught using a mixture of seminars, workshops, online materials and self-study. Assessment will take place using a variety of methods such as work-place observations, written assignments, presentations and feedback from managers and peers.

Apprentices will be assigned a development coach who will guide them through the apprenticeship using a mixture of tutorials, 1:1 coaching sessions and online materials for self-study.

Workshops to study the Diploma will take place online (at the moment) once every 6 weeks on average, with other apprentices from different organisations. This gives apprentices the opportunity to share best practice and knowledge. Closed cohorts can also be delivered if required.
