The CIPD Certificate in L&D Practice (CLDP) programme uses a highly practical approach to provide an in-depth and thorough grounding in the training cycle and the fundamentals of learning and development.

Upon successful completion of the programme, you'll be awarded the CIPD Foundation Level Certificate in L&D Practice. The qualification is accredited by the CIPD and is equivalent to QCF Level 3.

The CLDP replaces the highly regarded CIPD Certificate in Training Practice (CTP) and is ideal for practitioners looking to acquire a means of professional recognition in the field of learning and development.

There are two options available for you to complete this qualification:

1) Fast-track programme - particularly suitable for professionals who already have a certain level of experience in this area and wish to gain the qualification in a shorter time frame. The fast-track programme is delivered by CIPD Training, the CIPD's specialist learning provider. The information on these web pages specifically covers the fast-track programme.

2) CIPD Flexible Learning+ programme - takes place over a longer period of time, and is exclusively delivered by MOL. If you wish to know more about the CIPD Flexible Learning+ programme, please view the CIPD Flexible Learning + website.
