The tender, titled "Provision of Level 6 Data Scientist Degree Apprenticeship ST0585 to DWP employees," focuses on staff training services within the education industry category. With a contract value of £760,000, the services will be delivered across various locations, including the British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. The procurement stage concluded with the award on 14th March 2025, and the contract period extends from 17th March 2025 to 17th September 2030.
