Unit details

  • Specialist unit
  • Level 7
  • 12 credits

There is a well-established body of knowledge and theory on learning processes and their application in instructional design and facilitating learning that also influences design and delivery of learning and development plans and events. This body of knowledge therefore forms a significant component of the module.

The module as a whole is intended to develop the professional knowledge and skills required to perform effectively in specialist roles associated with the design, delivery and evaluation of learning and development. It requires learners to reflect critically on theory and practice from an ethical and professional standpoint and provides opportunities for applied learning and continuous professional development.

 This module is suitable for persons who:

  • have responsibility for human resource (HR) decision making within an organisation at either operational, tactical or more strategic level

  • are HR professionals in a team or HR functional management role who are seeking to enhance and develop their career

  • have responsibilities for the HR function and activities within an organisation without a specialist function

  • are independent or employed consultants who support organisations in meeting their goals

  • have HR career and CIPD professional membership aspirations.
