The deadline for representations has now passed. We would like to speak to awarding bodies that may be interested in developing a qualification in this area. The information that we gather will be used to inform the development of the contract specification which would be used if we decide to proceed with the procurement process.

Questions that participants put to us during the dialogue will be collated so that when we are in a position to respond, we will issue one set of information to all interested parties at the same time. Additional information: Parties interested in participating in pre-tender engagement with us should email procurement@qualificationswales.org to book a Teams meeting, Please insert 'Advanced Skills Baccalaureate Wales pre-tender engagement' in the subject area of the email, state your interest and the names, job titles and email addresses of those who will take part from your organisation.
