If you have ambitions to reach a senior level in your HR career, you need to stand out in the HR world.

You must complete the CIPD Level 7 Diploma in order to enrol onto the MSc.
You must have completed your CIPD Level 7 Diploma, within the last 5 years, to be allowed to enrol on the MSc. There are no exceptions to this rule. This is a regulation established by the Awarding Body - Salford University.
