Notice Description

Suffolk County Council has awarded apprenticeship training services to Capella through established public sector frameworks, specifically the YPO framework. Learning providers submitted bids which were filtered based on the Council's service requirements.

The successful provider demonstrated the best overall fit for delivering apprenticeship training to support the Council's early careers strategy.
