## Summary

The County Durham and Darlington Fire and Rescue Service has completed a procurement process for the delivery of "Leadership and Management Apprenticeships," specifically targeted at providing CMI level 3 and level 5 qualifications. This procurement falls under the vocational training services category and was conducted through a direct method with a single tender action due to it being below the threshold. The contract, valued at £160,000, commenced on 1st October 2019 and is set to conclude on 31st August 2022. The services are required across various sites in the North East of England, with the tender period ending on 20th May 2019.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the training and educational sector, particularly those that specialise in vocational training and apprenticeship programmes. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, as they often offer flexible and tailored training solutions. Companies that can provide face-to-face training along with practical assessments within the North East region will find this opportunity well-suited to their capabilities.

## Notice
