We require the successful supplier to be able to provide digital learning offerings in lieu of face to face training as and when required. Occasionally we may also need providers to work with us collaboratively on bespoke group training requests. We've split this tender into two areas or lots. The lots are: a) Information Systems - LOT A b) Accredited Project Management/LEAN Practices - LOT B; Suppliers can bid for one or both lots.
