The total contract value is estimated at £185,000. This tender represents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in IT training and development, particularly those focusing on digital engineering software.

Interested parties are encouraged to register on the specified e-procurement platform to express their interest. ## Notice MTC Training, a commercial enterprise of the University of Sunderland providing accredited IT training and apprenticeships, has secured a significant ESF (European Social Fund) match- funded contract, to support businesses within the Tyne & Wear, and Northumberland area. 'Unlocking Digital Skills for North East Businesses' aims to support the development and upskilling of digital skills to existing workforces across a range of industries, with a particular focus on manufacturing. Through the project, MTC Training have identified several clients who are interested in developing their digital skills on EPLAN (or equivalent) - an Electrical Engineering Software for the planning and documentation of electrical design projects. To support their needs, we are looking to single source an accredited/licensed training provider who can deliver the services on client premises within the North East 'Developed' LEP (Local Enterprise Partnership) area (Northumberland, and Tyne & Wear). Clients will range from micro businesses up to large multi-national employers. The proposed training is required from March 2020 until March 2021 (subject to further funding there may be an opportunity for an extension of a year (in monthly increments)).
