The college serves approximately 10,000 learners across the West Midlands helping them to achieve their learning objectives and secure employment. The region has specific requirements to support learners in and wishing to enter the health care sectors especially in relation to addressing mental health needs. Support is also required to support learners on low incomes in the upskilling process to access higher paid roles. The college's strategy is to ensure there is provision available to meet these needs. The college is looking to subcontract so that it can complement its provision to those just outside the West Midlands Combined Authority Area "WMCA area" where learners can commute and gain jobs in the WMCA area; enhance opportunities available to learners; offer an entry point for disadvantaged groups; increase its capacity to offer better geographical access to learners; and fill gaps in niche or expert provision. BMet is looking for experienced qualified training providers able to offer a portfolio of online courses that will help it support its objectives. Interested parties are invited to submit quotation form and complete our PQQ and Due Diligence form by 5 pm on 18th July 2025.
