This procurement falls under the education and training services category and is currently at the active tender stage, with submissions due by 26th May 2021. The official procurement method is an open procedure, allowing for broad participation. This programme is set to support talent development within the organisation and will be available to all staff in management or leadership roles across the UK. This tender presents a significant opportunity for educational service providers and consultancies specialising in criminology or related training programs. Businesses capable of tailoring educational experiences to diverse backgrounds and age groups, particularly those who may have been out of formal education for an extended period, will be well-suited to engage. With a contract value of £1,140,000, there is a substantial prospect for growth for providers who can align their offering with the needs of HMPPS and successfully navigate the internal selection process. ## Notice The Criminology Masters will be offered to all staff within Her Majesty's Prison and Probation Service in a management or leadership grade and all will be free to apply subject to managerial approval. Learners will be selected from both operational and non-operational roles through an internal application and selection process. They may or may not already have degree level qualifications (Level 6) and there will likely be a number of learners per year who have been out of formal education for 20 years or longer. The provider will be expected to tailor support for such learners to enable them to learn. Learners will be subject to an internal selection process by HMPPS before accessing the qualification and may come from a wide range of backgrounds. Retaining talent within the business and giving employees a development opportunity that will continue to ensure that objectives are met across the business. The learning will be brought back into HMPPS and therefore the business will benefit as a whole. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The Criminology Masters will be offered to all staff within Her Majesty's Prison and Probation Service in a management or leadership grade and all will be free to apply subject to managerial approval.
