This initiative falls under the education and training services industry category and aims to improve the response of police officers to domestic abuse cases. The key deadlines include the submission for clarification questions by 5.00pm on 23rd April 2019 and the final applications due by 5.00pm on 6th May 2019. The contract is set to commence on 10th May 2019 and will run until 9th May 2021. This tender presents valuable opportunities for businesses specialising in training and development, particularly those focused on domestic abuse awareness and response. Service providers with expertise in facilitation, curriculum development, and training for police staff would be well-suited to compete, especially those who can accommodate the target price of £2,163 per course delivery. Companies capable of scaling their offerings to meet the estimated demand for over 3,500 first responder training sessions and 355 champions training sessions may find significant growth potential within the Home Office police forces that could choose to engage these services. ## Notice The College of Policing is the professional body for the police in England and Wales. The College works to raise the professional status of police officers and police staff. It plays a vital role in setting standards and in the training and development of police officers and staff, ensuring that they have the knowledge and skills they need in order to fight crime and protect the public. This opportunity is an invitation to participate in a competition for a 2-year licence to use the College of Policing's Domestic Abuse Matters Change Programme ('DA Matters') to deliver training to delegates from Home Office police forces. It includes the College's: * 1-Day (7 hour) First responder training * 1-Day (7 hour) Champions training The government's definition of domestic abuse is "Any incident or pattern of incidents of controlling, coercive, threatening behaviour, violence or abuse (psychological, physical, sexual, financial or emotional) between those aged 16 or over who are, or have been, intimate partners or family members regardless of gender or sexuality". DA Matters is a programme of activity to help policing organisations to enhance the knowledge and skills of their workforce who act as 'First Responders' and those 'Champions' who manage or supervise them, in order to improve the police response to domestic abuse. The trainer-led classroom based sessions include a mixture of videos, PowerPoint presentations, and group discussions. Key learning outcomes are for delegates to be able to explain what is meant by the term 'coercive control', understand the effect of multiple controlling behaviours on victims, and identify why victims can find it difficult to leave an abusive partner. The programme is a response to recommendations in the HMIC's 2014 report entitled "Everyone's business: Improving the Police Response to Domestic Abuse".
