The tender, valued at £100,000, seeks to address unmet demand for training services, with a deadline for submissions set for 17th December 2018. The contract is expected to commence on 17th January 2019 and finish by 30th June 2019. This initiative falls under the education and training services sector, specifically targeting healthcare workforce development within the United Kingdom. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in mental health training services, particularly those who provide psychotherapy or trauma-focused treatment education. Given the strong demand from approximately 130 practitioners, organisations that can deliver comprehensive and accredited EDMR training programmes are encouraged to express their interest. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with experience in health and social work services will be well-suited to compete for this contract, particularly those capable of scaling their training capacity to meet the needs identified by Health Education England. ## Notice Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EDMR) is a psychotherapy training intervention to support patients who have experienced traumatic stress disorders. NICE recommends that all people with Post Traumatic Syndrome Disorder should be offered a course of trauma-focused psychological treatment (trauma-focused cognitive behavioural therapy [CBT] or eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing [EMDR]). These treatments should normally be provided on an individual outpatient basis. Each year Health Education England working across the North supports currently delivery of a small volume of training, usually for about 60 participants across the North. There has though been substantial demand for support from service organisations across the North of England this year which has not been met. Currently there are approximately 130 practitioners who have requested EDMR training and who we anticipate would meet the required minimum criteria for undertaking such training. Therefore, given this strong demand and as part of our commitment to support the development of the mental healthcare workforce HEE is making more investment available to commission more training capacity and delivery by the end of the current financial year. We anticipate that most participants will require all 3 parts of an accredited EDMR programme, although some may only wish and seek to attend specific parts of the programme. Consequently, HEE is seeking expressions of interest from interested provider(s) to deliver EDMR training to meet the identified additional demand.
