        "description": "This Notice is a CALL FOR COMPETITION to select supplier(s) for the award of contract(s) to design, implement and deliver the Technical Qualification component for each of the seven T Levels of the UK Government's Wave 2 - T Level programme.

They will be available to young people alongside apprenticeships as one half of a high quality technical education offer. T Levels will be primarily studied at an education or training provider. Students will study a broad occupational area before specialising, and will have the opportunity to apply their knowledge and skills on a substantial industry placement. This procurement is divided into six Lots, with five Lots representing the Technical Qualification component of a T Level, and one Lot (Construction) representing two Technical Qualifications. See the Information about Lots and the procurement documents for further details of the contracts(s) and services to be delivered.
