## Summary

The Cambridge City Council is seeking an experienced contractor for the Region of Learning project, aiming to connect all types of learning outside formal education. The project entails a strategic review to enhance success beyond the current provision framework, with a contract period from July 29, 2024, to October 31, 2024. The procurement method is an open procedure below the threshold, with a tender deadline set for July 15, 2024, inviting businesses within the services industry to participate.

This opportunity presents SMEs and VCSEs with a chance to contribute to the Region of Learning initiative and promote innovative solutions. Businesses in research and development services and related consultancy services are well-suited to compete for this project, as it aligns with the Council's aim to improve outcomes for people and places through learning partnerships. The project focuses on enhancing provision beyond 2025, providing a platform for business growth and strategic collaboration.

## Notice

Region of Learning is a place-based mission aiming to recognise and connect all types of learning, skills and attributes outside of formal education to improve outcomes for people and the places they live in. Part of the RSA's Cities of Learning movement, Region of Learning now boasts successful partnerships with Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority, City & Guilds, Badge Nation and Cambridge-based careers provider, Form the Future. As the Region of Learning project delivers and monitors outputs for current funding stakeholders through 2024, Cambridge City Council are seeking an experienced and strategic contractor to review this place-based innovation project, its current provision, and to make recommendations to build on its success moving the project beyond its current provision framework of March 2025.
