The tender is at the active stage, with a submission deadline of 18 April 2019. The contract is expected to commence on 26 April 2019 and run until 31 March 2020. This open procurement process allows interested parties to submit their proposals to facilitate placements in further education (FE) providers for final year undergraduates and postgraduates. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in education services, recruitment, and career guidance. Companies that can offer mentoring and operational support to FE providers would be particularly suited for this contract. Additionally, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, potentially fostering collaboration and sharing of best practices across regions as successful bidders will work together to enhance the FE teaching landscape. ## Notice This is the third of three invitations to tender on this topic. The ETF seeks to encourage final year undergraduates and post graduates to consider a career in teaching in FE. One approach to this is to get such students to spend some time in FE providers (colleges or independent Training Providers (ITPs)), helping with the delivery. The ETF is seeking a tenderer to organise mentored placements with FE sector providers and facilitating this by offering financial incentives to the students and operational funding to the colleges/ITPs. The successfully appointed tenderer will research and compile a list of local vacancies including part time teaching vacancies which will be made available to participants. We are seeking to award three contracts in separate regions for this work across England. The successfully appointed tenderer will be expected to work across one of the following English FE areas: North, Central and South: This ITT is for the South area including the South West, South East and London FE regions. The successfully appointed tenderers for each region will be expected to work together to share good practice. Separate ITTs have been published for the North and Central regions. Tenderers wishing to bid for more than one region must complete a separate tender response document for each. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5e2b63c3-1892-4b97-8988-f79f3f574997 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 5 Apr 2019 | | Submission deadline | 18 Apr 2019 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 25 Apr 2019 - 31 Mar 2020 | | 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 | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE 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 - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 79600000 - Recruitment services - 79634000 - Career guidance services - 80000000 - Education and training services - 80210000 - Technical and vocational secondary education services - 80400000 - Adult and other education services ## Release History - 5 Apr 2019 at 16:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5e2b63c3-1892-4b97-8988-f79f3f574997 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5e2b63c3-1892-4b97-8988-f79f3f574997 5th April 2019 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.mytenders.co.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=APR156944 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.
