The CIPD Guide to Studying

About this event

The CIPD Guide to Studying

Starting a CIPD or CIPD approved qualification is more than enrolling on a course. It's joining a professional community that is here to support you throughout your studies and beyond.


Student Network Live, is our new interactive event series designed exclusively for CIPD students. No matter what level you are studying at, completing an apprenticeship, or learning through a university, college or study centre, this event is for you.


We know that most CIPD students aren't "traditional students". You're professionals, career changers, managers, parents, carers and future people professionals, often balancing study alongside busy lives and demanding careers. That's why we've created a space where students can come together to learn, connect, share experiences and discover how to make the most of their CIPD membership.


Why Attend?

✅ Hear a special welcome from Neil Carberry, Chief Executive of the CIPD

✅ Discover the resources, tools and benefits available through your CIPD membership

✅ Learn how AI can support your studies while maintaining academic integrity

✅ Connect with fellow students from across the World

✅ Hear real stories from members who have successfully balanced work, life and study

✅ Gain practical actions you can take immediately to enhance your learning experience

✅ Become part of a growing student community at the heart of the CIPD

And it all counts towards your CPD!


Interactive Throughout

This isn't a webinar where you simply sit and listen.

Throughout the event you'll have opportunities to:

  • Take part in live polls and word clouds
  • Share your experiences and questions
  • Learn from other members
  • Influence future event topics
  • Connect with the wider CIPD student community


Don't Want to Wait Until October?

Join our Online Student Community today: CIPD Community


This is a dedicated space for CIPD students to:

  • Connect with other students and members from across the UK
  • Share experiences, challenges and success stories
  • Ask questions in a supportive environment
  • Tell us what support you need from the CIPD
  • Suggest topics you'd like us to cover at future Student Network Live events
  • Help shape the future of our member programmes

We want these events to be designed with students, not just for students, so we'd love to hear your ideas and feedback.


You're part of this community

Student Network Live has been created to ensure that students feel connected, supported and valued throughout their CIPD journey.


Most importantly, we want you to know that you're not "just a student member". You are already part of the CIPD community and an important part of the future of the people profession.


Reserve your place today and join us for an evening of insight, inspiration and connection.
