CIPD Remind All Centres about AI


Article content

CIPD has done something amazing. In their latest update to the centres who deliver their qualifications, this includes HRC Online, they have clarified that the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is against the rules, and that they are actively looking for AI in assessments by using checkers that look for artificially created assessments.

We at HRC are so happy about this because we already have those checkers in place and advise and guide our learners not to use AI when writing assessments or researching. The reasons are multiple.

  • Learners aren’t learning if AI is doing the hard work for them. People learn when they are guided by humans and then write answers themselves.
  • We know CIPD is very aware of the situation regarding AI and the negative impact it can have on learning, assessments and the HR industry, so we don’t allow learner-side AI help.
  • We are people-centred. We have study mentors, videos, podcasts, and provide assessment based learning. All of this is people talking to people, not robots or AI.


So HR have a new buzzword... Fauxductivity 🤮

Fauxductivity is a term used to describe the illusion of being productive while actually engaging in unproductive or non-work-related activities. It often involves multitasking, switching between tasks frequently, or engaging in activities that provide a sense of accomplishment without yielding tangible results.

Common examples of fauxductivity include:

  • Checking emails or social media constantly.
  • Organising your workspace or desk repeatedly.
  • Creating elaborate to-do lists without completing them.
  • Engaging in endless meetings or conference calls.
