The uniquely designed programme provides the best value on the market, undercutting all competitor CIPD Level 3 products but without compromising on quality or support. An introductory rate of £1,450 plus VAT is available until the end of August, saving £400 on the recommended retail price.

Combining the very best in online learning with one-to-one support from an expert personal adviser, the course has been developed to enable successful candidates to gain their Certificate and achieve CIPD Associate Membership three to six months faster than traditional learning methods from wherever they are based in the world.

Candidates are taught by the very best industry experts in the business as Watson Martin Partnership candidates consistently achieve 98% pass rates*, and with fortnightly start dates can join up at any time.

From then on candidates work at their own pace participating in six live monthly evening webinars, one for each unit, which are also recorded for later viewing, and two one-to-one coaching sessions with a dedicated personal adviser. A thriving fast-track community including online support from a team of advisers with expertise in each of the HR areas, a Twitter feed to share candidate experiences, an online Q&A regularly updated message board and a whole raft of quality reference materials available on the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), complete the unique package.

Adopting a very practical, work-based approach, the new fast-track qualification adopts the latest trends in Learning and Development which highlight an increase in the take-up of online and e-learning methods embraced by the Millennials while responding to feedback from candidates that personal contact is important too.

“We are finding that more and more people who come to us for CIPD qualifications want their personal development to be as flexible as possible so they can learn wherever and whenever they want, but they like the security of having a personal adviser to support them throughout their studies,” explains WMP Managing Partner Heather Watson. “This new fast-track Foundation Certificate really does offer the best of both worlds and provides excellent value for money with the minimum time investment. It is ideal for those candidates who want to get CIPD qualified quickly while keeping an eye on the purse strings,” she adds.

The fast-track Foundation qualification is ideal for those aiming for a career in HR or who already work in an HR support role but want to develop further knowledge and skills. The qualification is equivalent to an A level and comprises six units with no exams. Feedback is provided after each assignment is drafted and before it is submitted for final assessment. There are helpful next step guides available for each unit and all candidates have 24/7 access to the Watson Martin Partnership VLE complete with online videos, documents, visuals, narration and learning activities which are tracked and monitored.

More fast-track qualifications will be available from Watson Martin Partnership in the coming months.
