This tender falls under the education and training services category, aimed at enhancing assessment skills for practitioners in the South West region of England. Currently in the planning stage, the engagement end date for interested parties to submit expressions of interest was set for 23rd February 2018. The contact for this procurement is Adele McAlpine, and expressions of interest were requested by 5pm on Thursday, 5th May 2016. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for training providers that specialise in childhood education, social care, or psychological services. Companies that demonstrate expertise in delivering tailored training programmes can position themselves to compete effectively. Local organisations with a strong understanding of the needs of children's services or those that can provide innovative training solutions may find this a lucrative avenue to expand their service offerings and secure impactful contracts with Cornwall Council. ## Notice Please note that this early engagement has now been completed. Please do not respond. Assessments are a way of gathering information about a child and their family which enable the practitioner to gain a better understanding of the needs of the child and identify whether or not these needs are being met by the family or services that are already provided. They also enable the practitioner to identify the risk the child faces as well as strategies to reduce these risks. An assessment should also enable the practitioner to identify the ways in which they can support the family to build on their existing and potential strengths to ensure that the child is safe and that their needs are met appropriately. We are looking for expressions of interest from individuals or organizations who might be interested in submitting a quotation for delivering training that will support those working in the Children's Early Help, Psychology and Social Care Service to further develop their assessment skills. If you would like to be invited to submit a quotation for this work please contact me by 5pm on Thursday 5th May. Further details and a full specification will be sent out after that date to all those who have expressed an interest by 5pm on 5/5/16. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9eb7bf54-69c5-42a7-9396-b219f254bd54 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 19 Jun 2017 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 23 Feb 2018 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Cancelled | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CORNWALL COUNCIL | | Locality | TRURO | | Post town | Truro | | Postcode | TR1 3AY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK3 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | ITL 3 | TLK30 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | Local authority | Cornwall | | Electoral ward | Truro Boscawen & Redannick | | Westminster constituency | Truro and Falmouth | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80000000 - Education and training services ## Release History - 19 Jun 2017 at 13:23 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9eb7bf54-69c5-42a7-9396-b219f254bd54 - 19 Jun 2017 at 13:23 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a71ef5ea-5a23-420d-9dc0-4ee56b3d4ea0 - 19 Jun 2017 at 13:22 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c0ad45a7-dfaa-42b4-a4e1-c67a33329b9a - 18 Nov 2016 at 20:17 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c0ad45a7-dfaa-42b4-a4e1-c67a33329b9a ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9eb7bf54-69c5-42a7-9396-b219f254bd54 19th June 2017 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a71ef5ea-5a23-420d-9dc0-4ee56b3d4ea0 19th June 2017 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c0ad45a7-dfaa-42b4-a4e1-c67a33329b9a 19th June 2017 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
