This initiative falls under the Research and Development Services sector and is located in London, England. The procurement phase is currently active, with expressions of interest being sought until 23:59 on 15th November 2019. The subsequent contract period is set to commence on 9th January 2020 and conclude on 30th June 2022. The procurement method is an open procedure, specifically designed for contracts below the threshold. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in research and development services, particularly those with expertise in educational evaluations and Continuous Professional Development. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in consultancy within the education sector may find this tender particularly aligned with their capabilities, given its focus on assessing the outcomes of T Level Professional Development for various Further Education providers. Participating in this contract could enhance market presence and contribute to future educational initiatives. ## Notice ** EOI Update 14/11/19 - purdah wording ** Expressions of interest are sought to deliver an evaluation of T Level Professional Development (TLPD) Phase 2. TLPD is a programme of high quality Continuous Professional Development (CPD) designed to prepare technical teachers, trainers, managers and leaders in Further Education (FE) for the introduction and successful delivery of T Levels. TLPD is being delivered in two phases. Phase 1 runs to March 2020 and Phase 2 will run from April 2020. Fifty FE providers are delivering the first T Levels from September 2020 and approximately sixty more have been approved to deliver from September 2021. It is these providers that TLPD is primarily, but not exclusively, aimed at during 2020 and 2021. These are a mix of general FE colleges, sixth form colleges and other types of providers. This evaluation is focussed on TLPD Phase 2. The evaluation will use Management Information (MI) provided by the delivery partner for TLPD, alongside qualitative and quantitative data to assess if the programme meets its expected outcomes. Please Note: Deadline for submission of EOI reply form is 23.59 Friday 15th November 2019 As the ITT will be issued during purdah, there may be some minor alterations to the commissioning timetable, though this will not change the expected delivery of the work. There is also an increased risk that the project is cancelled at short notice.
