Level 5 - recommended books

Hi

I was just wondering if there are any books that you would recommend for level 5 diploma? There's a couple of CIPD books on HRM by Stephen Taylor and Carol Woodhams aimed at students studying level 5 and I'm not sure whether to get them or not.

There's a lot of further reading books I'd like to buy that have been mentioned at the end of the DPG e-lessons but obviously they cost money and I can't afford to buy all of them! Are there any generalist books that you have found invaluable?

I'm currently considering whether to buy Transformational HR by Perry Timms. I saw him speak at the student conference in Manchester last year and he was very informative.

Thanks in advance.

    • Thanks Sarah. That's really helpful.

  • Hi Amy 

    The ebook lets you search, highlight, make notes and it’ll even do the references for you. It syncs across devices too. 

    This is the ‘core’ text as stipulated by CIPD so It’s a good source. If you can’t find what you are looking for in there it can often give you ideas nd work as a kind of springboard to other sources. 

    • Hi Amy

      Please accept my apologies for giving you incorrect information: we only issue the eBook to participants on the 100% Online programme - this is the reason you haven't got it and have the hard copy version instead.

    • Hi Gary,

      If you can share the link of these e books please, will be useful.

        Rest assured that you'll be sent an individual ebook voucher code and instructions on the day that your programme starts.

    • Hi Gary,

      Do you have a link to the ebook please?
