## Summary

The Education and Training Foundation is initiating an award for the "Governance Development Programme," focused on the education and training services sector. The contract, valued at £300,450, is situated within the British Overseas Territories and other regions, including Europe and the UK. The procurement process followed an open procedure, with the tender period concluding on 30 June 2022. The contract is set to commence on 1 August 2022 and will run until 31 March 2024.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) looking to expand their business within the education sector. Candidates are encouraged to propose innovative, sector-focused learning resources that cater to governors and governance professionals across various college settings. Businesses with expertise in educational content development, training facilitation, and research-led pedagogical practices would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract.

## Notice

Building on the current GDP programme, the ETF seeks to develop its support further, taking into account current teaching, learning and assessment approaches, research into effective learning and CPD. The successful tenderer will be expected to review existing materials (revising if necessary) before these same principles are applied to the design of the new modules, webinars/ podcasts and resources. All current GDP modules will be made available to the successful tenderer. Tenderers can view some existing module scripts and training schedules for their reference in Annex D part 1 and part 2. We would like tenderers to propose how they would design sector-focussed, learning resources that support governors and governance professionals across different college settings. We are open to new ideas around delivery, course content and pedagogical approaches and expect tenderers to submit responses that are both evidence and research-led.
