## Summary

The National Programme of Autism Training for Psychiatrists has been awarded by NHS England to the Royal College of Psychiatrists.

## Notice

HEE delivers across the 7 NHS regions in England (Northeast and Yorkshire, North West, Midlands, East of England, South West, South East and London) and any potential supplier would be required to deliver training that would ensure psychiatry capabilities are developed in all of these regions. Health Education England is committed to working with people and families and will require that this programme of work is co-developed and delivered with autistic people and their families. Delivery organisations will be expected to outline how they proposed develop and deliver the programme in co-production with autistic people and their families as part of their proposal. The programme of work is expected to take place over three years from commencement in October 2022-to 31 March 2025, subject to annual funding reviews. The contract will be offered aligned to this approach with an ability to review and refine the requirements in response to information and data from the end of year evaluation report.
