The CIPD Human Resources Profession Map
The HR Profession Map (HRPM) was developed by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development in collaboration with HR and LD professionals, senior business people, academics and their organisations to set the standards of HR professionals. It provides the foundation for global professional competency in Human Resources (HR).
The Map consists of three main areas. There are the ten professional areas that define what the HR profession encompasses and each area is divided in what you need to do (activities) and what you need to know (knowledge). Then there are the eight behaviours that identify how professionals need to carry out their activities and they are divided into three clusters. The last main area of the map is the four bands of professional competence that relate to both professional areas and behaviours. They define the contributions that professionals make at every stage of their career. The professional competence ranges from Band 1 that reflects the activities and knowledge pertinent to a HR professional at the beginning of their HR career up to Band 4 that is related to the most senior positions.
