CIPP update

Silver award for investment in people TOWARDS THE end of 2021, the CIPP underwent the re-accreditation for Investors in People. We are pleased to confirm we have achieved a silver accreditation. The CIPP has held Investors in People for several years to demonstrate that we value our people. During 2020, we launched our academy programme internally to ensure we continue to support, grow and develop our teams. We are delighted this has been well received by colleagues and recognised by Investors in People. 2021 is the first year we have received the silver accreditation, which shows our employees are engaged with the organisation and committed to its ongoing success. The silver accreditation shows that the ‘people practices’ we have put in place, such as the academy programme and our internal communications, are beginning to make a tangible difference to employees, and the CIPP overall.
