With a total contract value of £350,000, this open procurement process aims to contract relevant services that combine courses and online modules, providing a blended learning experience. The tender is currently in the active stage and must be submitted by 26th January 2017, with the contract expected to commence on 21st February 2017 and last until 29th December 2017. The services are classified under the category of Education and training services, specifically focusing on adult education. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in education, training, and digital skills development, to engage with public sector initiatives. Companies capable of designing and delivering innovative ICT education programs would be well-suited to compete for this contract. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as well as voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are encouraged to apply, as the procurement process is designed to foster inclusivity within these sectors, potentially leading to substantial business growth through collaborative projects. ## Notice The primary aim of the programme is to develop the FE workforce and ensure they are capable of delivering Information Computing Technology (ICT) at level 2. We wish to upskill teachers/tutors in FE to enable them to have the skills to deliver ICT functional skills at level 2 and similar qualifications. Through this ITT we are looking to contract with a tenderer or tenderers to design, pilot and rollout a series of courses and workshops that combined with the online modules, being separately developed, provide a blended learning experience to help practitioners further develop and apply their digital skills. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bfd276a4-aab9-4012-8c30-a6a1ec1d8da7 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 13 Jan 2017 | | Submission deadline | 26 Jan 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 21 Feb 2017 - 29 Dec 2017 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £350,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | EDUCATION AND TRAINING FOUNDATION | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1W 9SP | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | Pimlico North | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLE Yorkshire and The Humber, TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLI London, TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80000000 - Education and training services - 80400000 - Adult and other education services ## Release History - 13 Jan 2017 at 17:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bfd276a4-aab9-4012-8c30-a6a1ec1d8da7 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bfd276a4-aab9-4012-8c30-a6a1ec1d8da7 13th January 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - http://www.mytenders.org/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JAN137130 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://www.et-foundation.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
