Ashwathy Panicker – CIPD Level 3, 2024
I enrolled for a CIPD-L3 course at Kaplan, and must say it has been the best decision. The trainer has been amazing throughout the course, her enthusiasm and training style keeps us engaged throughout the sessions. The training materials are well-structured with insightful content and practical examples, also having great teammates add more value to sessions. I will definitely recommend to all those to be a part of Kaplan family for the quality training service they provide.
