Happy new year to all our readers. With a focus on learning and development and payroll education, it’s a great way to start the year. And with National Apprenticeship Week this month, what an excellent way to celebrate. Having a payroll apprentice in the team is a great platform for a new starter to

learn and grow in the payroll profession, giving them the basic tools they need to build their career at Level 3. These skills can then grow further with the Level 5 apprenticeship taking the individual’s career to the next stage. With the mix of on-the-job training, studying and putting learning into practice in the workplace, there’ll be instances where even a well-established team find themselves asking questions and learning along the way with the apprentice. An apprentice is well supported in their learning journey. They have the support of their employer, their team and the apprenticeship provider. Good luck to all apprentices in their apprenticeship journey and well done to all who have passed their Level 3. Not to forget the many other forms of learning and development qualifications from Level 3 up to Level 7, with a master’s degree and beyond, to a doctorate. It’s never too late to continue the learning journey, and, as the saying goes, we all learn something new every day.

message Here we are in 2023 with many different challenges to be faced. A cost-of- living crisis, high inflation and uncertain times, with industrial action across many sectors, all of which hasn’t been seen for many a generation. In this time of hybrid working and working from home, the CIPP is among

many employers giving colleagues the opportunity to work in the office for the days when they’re scheduled to work from home. In addition, opening the office earlier and closing it later, enabling colleagues to work in a warm location, with access to an endless free supply of hot drinks. I’m sure many employers are working at being imaginative during these difficult times. In an important change of subject, in November 2022, the CIPP advised eligible members that they could put themselves forward for election to the board. It was pleasing to note that nominations in double digits were received. During December, the Nominations and Appeals Committee, led by our independent chair, Helen Fairfoul, along with various board colleagues, met and interviewed all candidates as part of our governance process. Those members who met the criteria to stand for election will be advised on 11 February (when the board will review the recommendations of the Nominations and Appeals Committee as to who should be put forward on the ballot papers for members to decide). Those of you who are voting members (Associate, Full, Fellow and Chartered Fellow) once again play an important role, as the election is launched on 14 February via email. You’ll receive notice of the Annual General Meeting (AGM) to be held on 29 March at the Eastfield Rooms in Birmingham, and your communication on 14 February will include: l details of the voting process l a link to the CIPP page to book to attend AGM (for Associates, Full, Fellow and Chartered members)
