## Summary

The procurement process is being conducted by The Education and Training Foundation for the tender titled "Career Pathways to FE Teaching - North Area." This initiative falls within the education and training services industry, targeting the North area of England, including regions like North East, Yorkshire and the Humber, and North West. Currently in the award stage, this contract has a total value of £144,900 and is set to commence on 25 April 2019, lasting until 31 March 2020. The procurement method used is an open procedure, with the tender period having ended on 18 April 2019.

This tender presents significant opportunities for organisations focusing on education services, particularly those that provide career guidance and training placements in the further education (FE) sector. Businesses, including SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), are encouraged to compete, especially those with experience in organising mentorship programmes and collaborations with FE providers. The successful bidder will benefit from operational funding and the chance to expand their network across various educational institutions in England.

## Notice

This is the second of three invitations to tender on this topic. The ETF seeks to encourage final year undergraduates and post graduates to consider a career in teaching in FE. One approach to this is to get such students to spend some time in FE providers (colleges or independent Training Providers (ITPs)), helping with the delivery. The ETF is seeking a tenderer to organise mentored placements with FE sector providers and facilitating this by offering financial incentives to the students and operational funding to the colleges/ITPs. The successfully appointed tenderer will research and compile a list of local vacancies including part time teaching vacancies which will be made available to participants. We are seeking to award three contracts in separate regions for this work across England. The successfully appointed tenderer will be expected to work across one of the following English FE areas: North, Central and South: This ITT is for the North area including the North West, North East, Yorkshire and Humberside FE regions. The successfully appointed tenderers for each region will be expected to work together to share good practice. Separate ITTs have been published for the Central and South regions. Tenderers wishing to bid for more than one region must complete a separate tender response document for each.
