Payroll Technician Certificate gets a revamp

WE ARE delighted to announce our online Payroll Technician Certificate has recently been refurbished to incorporate the latest digital applications and online tools available in the current learning environment. The CIPP has invested significantly into this popular qualification to ensure that it continues to meet the needs and expectations of our students and their employers alike.

Available from April 2020, this revamped product offers the latest in digital learning experiences available to the aspiring payroll professional. This qualification is designed for those new to the payroll profession or those who wish to improve their working knowledge of payroll processes. Those who have successfully enrolled on or completed this course before April 2020 possess a qualification equal in value to the new-look Payroll Technician Certificate. This six-month qualification continues to teach students all the core knowledge and skills required to administer the payroll function independently and with confidence. From calculating gross pay and identifying the differences between taxable and NICable pay, students progress to learning the methodologies for manually calculating PAYE income tax, NICs, student loan deductions and statutory payments. Together with a broad overview of other payroll obligations, such as court orders, real time information, auto-enrolment, end of year reporting and HMRC remittance calculations, students gain a balanced education on the fundamentals of the payroll profession. Each module offers comprehensive learning materials; links to a range of external material; and knowledge tests associated with these topics. Key subject matter is now further enriched with digital online learning tutorials as well as interactive scenario-based exercises, which enable students to apply their new-found knowledge and skills through realistic scenarios. The first cohort of the CIPP’s revamped Payroll Technician Certificate commence studying on 23 April 2020. To find out more about this qualification, please visit cipp.org.uk/study/PTC or contact us on enquiries@cipp.org.uk or 0121 712 1044.
