Qualifi Level 7 Diploma in Human Resource Management

No. Nothing on Qualifi's page claims CIPD accreditation, approval, exemption or membership, and we will not imply it on its behalf. The CIPD sets its own routes to Associate and Chartered membership, and only the CIPD can tell you whether anything you have studied counts towards them. The content here overlaps heavily with what CIPD-accredited study covers — resourcing, performance, employee relations, development — but overlap is not recognition. If chartership matters to your career plan, ask the CIPD before you enrol anywhere.

Qualifi publishes the subject title, Investigating a Business Issue from an HR Perspective, and no description of what sits inside it, so what follows reads the title rather than a syllabus. The shape of such a subject is normally recognisable: identify a real problem in an organisation, gather evidence about it, analyse what the people dimension contributes to it, and recommend something defensible. Your centre holds the assessment brief and the word count. Ask for both at the point of enquiry, because this subject will take the largest share of your effort.

We noticed the same thing and would rather point it out than hide it. The overview on the page is generic text about senior and middle managers needing awareness of specialist services, and it is reused on other qualifications in this family. It contains no reference to human resources. The HR substance of this award is in the six subject titles, which are specific and credible, so that is what we have built this page from. If a centre quotes you the generic paragraph as if it described the content, press for the subject descriptors instead.

Because Qualifi does not set them. The awarding body writes and regulates the qualification and issues the certificate; an approved centre delivers it, decides the schedule and charges the fee. Study time is not published for this award, so you have no official hours figure to test a centre's proposed timetable against. Two sensible questions at enquiry stage: when does the next cohort start and finish, and what does the total cost include once registration and certification are added?

Not according to what is published. The entry section lists two things and stops: a Level 6 qualification, or a first degree. Unlike several newer Qualifi awards at this level, there is no managerial experience route, no minimum age, no stated English language requirement and no paragraph about centres reviewing applications individually. Centres do apply their own admissions judgement in practice, so if you have long HR experience but no degree, the conversation to have is with the centre rather than with us.

Different things, despite the shared level. A master's degree is awarded by a university, usually involves supervised research and a longer taught element, and carries the title. This is a 120-credit Ofqual-regulated diploma awarded by Qualifi, delivered by a private centre, and it does not confer a degree. Where the two meet is the progression line Qualifi publishes, which suggests a dissertation can complete a master's at a UK university — a claim only the receiving university can confirm, so confirm it there.
