## Summary

The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) has completed a procurement process for the "Probation Service Practitioner Level 3 Apprenticeship" as part of its education and training services initiative. This procurement, under the open procedure, consisted of two lots and was initiated in February 2025, with the contract being signed on 9th July 2025. The total contract value is approximately £19,998,000 and covers the regions of North East, East & West Midlands, North West, Yorkshire & the Humber, Greater Manchester (Lot 1) and South West, South Central, Kent, Surrey, Sussex, East of England, London & Wales (Lot 2). The procurement process is linked to the primary category of services, specifically focusing on probation service officer apprenticeships, with the initial contract anticipated to span six years. Contracts have been awarded to Liverpool John Moores University and the University of Portsmouth.

This tender offers a promising avenue for educational and training service providers specialising in vocational training, particularly those who can develop and deliver advanced apprenticeship programmes. It is an opportunity for large-scale institutions or training companies that can fulfil the training needs of nearly 3,990 learners over a multi-year period. The engagement could lead to long-term partnerships with significant government bodies such as the MoJ, enhancing institutional reputation and expanding service portfolios in the publicly funded educational sector.
