## Summary

The Money and Pensions Service recently completed a procurement process for the "MG Assessment(s) and Endorsed Award" project in the education and training services category. The procurement method used was a direct Single tender action below threshold. The contracting authority, the Money and Pensions Service based in Bedford, United Kingdom, awarded an 18-month contract to CITY AND GUILDS OF LONDON INSTITUTE starting from April 1, 2024, with a total contract value of £48,000.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) in the education and training sector. Businesses interested in endorsing eLearning courses and providing digital credentials for professional recognition in the UK should consider engaging with the Money and Pensions Service. The 18-month contract offers a chance for suppliers, like CITY AND GUILDS OF LONDON INSTITUTE, to contribute to the professional development of money guidance across the UK during the transition to Phase 3 of the Money Guiders Programme.

## Notice

Money Guiders Programme (MGP) has a requirement for the endorsement of eLearning courses hosted on the Money Guiders Learning Hub (a Learner Management System) and the provision of 'certification' in the form of digital credentials (badges) for those who meet the learning criteria. To help create unity and professional recognition for money guidance across the UK, our 'award' (digital credential) must be issued by an awarding body that operates across all 4 nations. The City & Guilds of London Institute has been awarded an 18-month contract while the Money Guiders Programme transition to Phase 3 is completed.
