## Notice

Background The National School of Healthcare Science (NSHCS) is responsible for overseeing and supporting the implementation and ongoing delivery of training and education programmes for Healthcare Science across the UK. As part of this role, the NSHCS runs a number of large scale, complex events each year which range from national interviews for selection of trainees onto programmes, induction events to introduce new trainees to their training and high stakes exit examinations to determine fitness to practice of trainees at the end of their training. The detail of the specific events required are set out Appendix 1 of the ITT documentation which can be found at HEE's Procurement Portal - ProContract Due North (link to the portal can be found within the Additional Details section). Further information on the role and purpose of the School is available via the School's website: http://www.nshcs.hee.nhs.uk/ Rationale for procurement The scope and complexity of the events as well as the broader work of the school are such that substantive resources available are not sufficient to enable delivery of these events.
