I wouldn’t normally leave a negative review but I’ve really had enough of Avado. I completed my CIPD level 5 course with them, during my 15 month course, I had 4 different tutors. They missed marking my first assignment which caused a delay while they investigated, I was then moved to another cohort. In that cohort, there were 3 different tutors because they kept leaving or supposedly being promoted. We regularly had to chase up assignment results being released, and one of them was a day late in the end because of a technical issue. I passed my last assignment on January 24th and I am still waiting for my certificate from CIPD today (May 20th). After a lot of chasing Avado eventually sent me an e-certificate in March but it was the level 3 one and not the level 5. I have now spoken to CIPD this morning and I’m told Avado still haven’t informed them that I’ve passed, meaning it will be a minimum of 10 weeks until I get my certificate, plus I’m going to have to pay for another years student membership, despite passing in January meaning I should now be an associate.If you are thinking of doing a CIPD qualification, save yourself some time and endless phone calls and just go with another provider. It’s such a shame because my last tutor Claire was lovely, but she’s now left. Their online learning material is out of date with links that don’t work. But it is really easy to use and I liked the structure, they have the potential to be so good, but are just a terrible company to learn through.
