## Summary

The Ministry of Defence in the UK is planning to initiate the Tranche 3 Army Apprenticeship EPAO Contracting process, which focuses on providing apprenticeship standards in the education and training services sector.

Key deadlines include an anticipated future notice date set for 31st October 2022 and engagement periods beginning from October 2022 through to May 2024, depending on the specific apprenticeship standards involved. The contracting will occur in Andover, UK.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for educational service providers, particularly those specialising in apprenticeship end-point assessments.
