## Notice

Expressions of interest are sought for delivering a nationally representative cross-sectional survey of post-16 institutions and private training providers. Post-16 education is critical to the government's aim of raising productivity and growth. The government has an ambitious plan to reform the post-16 landscape, including introducing high quality technical and professional routes to employment, alongside robust academic routes, to allow individuals to gain high level skills valued by employers, which are more responsive to the needs of local employers and economic priorities. In order to gather timely intelligence and feedback from the post-16 sector, the Post-16 Institutions Omnibus Survey has run since 2015. There is an option for a follow-up qualitative element for which, if requested by the Department, up to an additional PS25,000 (excluding VAT) is available. Additional information: Deadline for receipt of tender - 12 noon Friday 1st November 2019
