Hi,
Is anyone struggling with the assignments?
I can do the studying no problem, but writing up about it - i'm struggling!
I didn't go to uni and haven't had to write an assignment for like 7 years - if anyone can help/give me any advice please
Thank you amber

Hi, I was in the exact same boat. I really enjoyed the elessons and studying, however, when it came to assessments really struggled. I have stuck with it...although it hs taken me 2 years and I am on my final assessment.
Like you I did not go to University or further education after school, it was straight out to work, and I felt I used that as a barrier for learning instead of embracing all the skills and knowledge I have gained over my working career to support me.
With the exception of 1 assessment, which ironically I kept avoiding (UIN) every assessment has been referred, again, when this happened I would tell myself, I cant do this. However, I dusted myself down and went back to the drawing board and passed on second attempt.
Keep with it...you can do it and if you thought it was beneficail I am happy to join your whatsapp group.
You can do this :)

Hiya Anne,
Honestly i thought i would just be able to do it no problem and im like struggling big time!
I just keep avoiding it - not even to be lazy but because im so worried!
I dont have a whatsapp group at the moment but im happy to join/make one! xx
Hi Amber

Hi
I'm struggling to get started! Could someone point me in the right direction please?
I signed up in May and as yet haven't done my first assignment "professional behaviours and valuing people" No issues with the reading it's just what to include in the assignment!
Hi Amber,
I would really like to join the WhatsApp group if possible. A year later I'm still on the first assignment.
I can't see the option to dm so not sure how to send my details to you?
Hi Chido, I will add you as a connection, you can then send me your number by direct message. I will add you to the group :) .... we are all in the same position.
Hi Nicky,
I joined in May this year and am yet to start the first assignment, I have only found this forum today after going via the CIPD Community! Would it be possible to be added to your Whatsapp group if theres "room" please :)
Hi Clare - Of course, the more the merrier - we have our first zoom call planned for Monday evening - send me a DM with your mobile number and email address and I will get you added
