This open procedure tender, identified as BDC SC-2018-01, is currently active and is set to conclude on 22nd June 2018, with a contract period commencing on 1st August 2018 and lasting until 31st August 2019. The college, located in East London, aims to engage service providers from the Education & Skills Funding Agency Register of Training Organisations to enhance their Adult Education Budget (AEB) provisions. Interested parties must ensure timely submissions, with a crucial deadline for clarifications set for 15th June 2018. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for training organisations, particularly those with experience in delivering adult education and support to groups traditionally under-represented in education and training. Businesses offering specialised educational services, particularly those adept at reaching hard-to-access demographics, will find this opportunity well-suited to their offerings. By aligning with BDC’s objectives of skills development and employer engagement, successful bidders can expand their market presence while contributing to local educational initiatives. ## Notice Barking & Dagenham College (BDC) is a large successful further education college with approximately 12,500 students (9000 are 19+, 3,500 aged 16 - 18) located in East London. At BDC, delivery of training through sub-contracted partners is firmly linked to the College's strategic objectives and to the local, regional and national agenda of skills development, employer engagement and widening participation in education, training and employment. The college seeks to work with organisations who have established links with those groups and individuals that have been traditionally under-represented in education, training and employment and that remain "hard to reach". The College also seeks to increase the breadth of its offer by engaging commercial organisations that deliver specialist provision. This Invitation to Tender (ITT) is a tendering opportunity for training providers on the Education & Skills Funding Agency Register of Training Organisations to deliver Adult Education Budget (AEB) provision.
