## Summary

Dorset Council is seeking providers for the "Learning and Development Training Services Framework" to replace its current framework, which concludes in March 2023. The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with the tender period closing on 9 September 2022. The total contract value is estimated at £2,176,820, covering training services required for both Children's Services and Adults Services across the geographic areas of Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole. Training may be delivered via various methods such as live online sessions, e-learning, or face-to-face interactions, with the contract period set from 1 November 2022 to 31 October 2026.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses of all sizes, including sole traders and small to medium enterprises (SMEs) that can deliver diverse training services. Companies with expertise in education, training, and professional development for social care sectors will find this opportunity particularly advantageous. Given the flexible delivery methods, businesses that can adapt to various training formats are well-suited to apply for a place on the framework.

## Notice

Dorset Council wishes to replace its Framework for Learning and Development Training Services which comes to an end in March 2023 and is seeking a broad range of providers who can deliver these services across Children's Services and Adults Services. Training services will also be required by the Pan-Dorset Safeguarding Boards which cover the geographical areas of Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole. We are seeking a diverse range of training providers to join the Framework e.g. businesses of all sizes including sole traders and differing delivery methods. Dependent on needs, training courses will be delivered either: 'live' online, e-learning, face-to-face or a hybrid of these delivery methods. Providers do not need to be able to deliver training to both services in order to apply for a place on the Framework.
