This commission, which falls under the training services category, has a budget of £1.2 million, with an exciting opportunity for interested businesses to submit their bids by 12th July 2022. The project seeks to address skills shortages in the construction sector by providing necessary pre-employment training and work trials to potential recruits. The contract period is set to commence on 18th August 2022 and will conclude on 31st March 2025. This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within the construction and training sectors, particularly those experienced in onsite training and workforce development. By participating in this commission, businesses can contribute to reducing the recruitment challenges facing the industry while enhancing their visibility and reputation within the sector. Those with capability in developing training programmes and offering support services for job readiness will be well-suited to compete, ultimately facilitating business growth through successful contract acquisition and collaboration with key stakeholders. ## Notice The successful provider (in each of the two targeted LEP areas) will establish physical and/or virtual infrastructure to enable delivery of two new CITB Onsite Experience hubs. The provider will engage and partner with all key stakeholders concerned with the pre-employment training, onsite work experience and recruitment of people seeking a construction career within the target areas in order to fill construction sector vacancies in-scope to CITB. ### Lot Information Lot 1 CITB are inviting bids from the construction industry to create a model of local, onsite work experience and training to help address the recruitment and skills challenges facing the sector in the Thames Valley Berkshire and London LEP areas. CITB have allocated PS1.2 million to establish Onsite Experience hubs within these two LEP areas (PS600,000 in each area). The primary objective of this commission is to deliver 'onsite experiences' to enable individuals to become employment and site-ready, before progressing at least 50% of these people into sustained employment for a minimum of three months. Research tells us that in order to get a new recruit to a desired initial standard of site-readiness, employers often need to devote significant time and resource to achieving this, regardless of the recruit's entry route into the sector or previous experience. Onsite Experience hubs will equip individuals to become employment and site-ready to employer specifications, before they are recruited, providing candidates with support including employability training, short duration construction training, PPE, CSCS cards and work experience, and therefore reducing the resource burden and risk for recruiting businesses. This commission addresses the challenge by funding pre-employment training, and an onsite experience which can be treated as a work trial by the employer, prior to committing to employing a new recruit.
