This procurement is classified under E-learning services and is currently at the tender stage, with submissions due by 14:00 on 29th November 2019. The anticipated contract commencement date is the week of 2nd December 2019, lasting for approximately three months. The total budget for this service is £12,000, with a minimum bid value set at £10,000. This opportunity presents significant growth potential for businesses specialising in e-learning and training services, particularly those experienced in developing engaging online educational content tailored to the healthcare sector. Companies that can provide modular training solutions and interactive follow-up sessions would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. With the CQC's focus on improving the training of over 1,100 Freedom To Speak Up Guardians in various health organisations, successful bidders could establish long-term relationships and expand their footprint within the sector. ## Notice The National Guardian's Office (NGO) wishes to procure an e learning package that will address the initial foundation and ongoing training needs of an expanding group of Freedom To Speak Up Guardians in England. The aim is to provide an engaging and compelling, high impact, accessible training product that instils understanding about the Freedom to Speak Up agenda and the role of the Freedom To Speak Up Guardian in providing an alternative route to speaking up. The NGO is currently supporting in excess of 1100 FTSUGs or those in a supporting role across England and across the health sector as a whole. The package will replace the current foundation training which is a 1 day face to face session and will enable training at scale and appeal to Guardians in a wide range of providers. The majority of Freedom To Speak Up Guardians currently are in NHS trusts and Foundation trusts and the new E-Learning will need to reflect the direction of travel towards a fully integrated approach across the patient pathway appealing to regulators, arms' length bodies and other health sector non-provider organisations. It will also be available on the new NGO website. The e-learning will be the main part of the training and will be followed up with an interactive face to face session in the form of an Action Learning Set or similar facilitative discussion. It is intended that the learning should be modular in nature and each element capable of standing alone, which it is hoped will also answer the need for Guardians to undertake annual refresher learning.
