Businesses interested in this tender should be prepared to deliver face-to-face training in a classroom setting, with a virtual option available as needed.

## Notice

Psychologically Informed Environments Training Sandwell Metropolitan Borough "The Council" requires Psychologically Informed Environments (PIE) training to be delivered face to face to Housing Management employees. Approximately 80 employees require training with a maximum of 15 delegates attending each cohort. This figure will likely change due to business demand or higher priority projects taking precedence. Training must be delivered in a classroom at a Sandwell MBC venue but with a virtual option if required by the business. Background Many Sandwell residents are often vulnerable and socially excluded for reasons such as adversity or trauma because of complex psychological and emotional needs, resulting in difficulties engaging with Sandwell services. Although primarily PIE has focused more on the homelessness sector, Sandwell MBC would prefer a more broader approach to training, covering all areas within housing such as Housing Officers, Anti-Social Behaviour and Community Safety. The estimated budget available for the delivery of this training is PS20,000 and the contract period will be for 1 year, commencing 1 September 2022 to 31 August 2022, with training to start as soon as possible from the contract start date. However, this information is intended to assist with the preparation of your bid. The Council does not bind itself to this or any other figure and is not a guarantee of business which may be generated from this contract. The contract value shall remain fixed for the duration of the contract.
