## Summary

The Ministry of Justice has recently completed a public procurement process titled "Forensic Psychologist in Training Qualification (Lot 1)", valued at £1,960,000. This procurement falls under the education and training services category and involves delivering a HCPC approved qualification in Forensic Psychology. The contract period is set from 12 July 2021 to 11 July 2029, with enrolments taking place in the first four years. The procurement process, conducted through an open procedure, concluded on 31 March 2021.

This opportunity is well-suited for educational institutions and training providers specialising in psychology, particularly those with the capability to deliver accredited qualifications recognised by the HCPC and BPS. SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to engage in this tender, as the process is designed to support their involvement and create pathways for business growth within the forensic psychology sector.

## Notice

The provider shall provide a HCPC approved qualification in Forensic Psychology that meets the requirements of the HCPC for registration as a Forensic Psychologist in the UK as a minimum. Specific requirements are outlined in section 4. The Forensic Psychology qualification requirement will be spilt into 2 Lots. Both contracts will run for 8 years, however enrolments will only take place in year 1, 2, 3 and 4 of each contract to ensure the contracts are still in place for Forensic Psychologists to complete their qualification. Lot 1: This lot will require the provider to deliver a qualification that is approved and accredited by the HCPC and the BPS. This will allow graduates of the qualification to be registered with the HCPC on completion and to be eligible for full membership of the BPS Division of Forensic Psychology.
