Description

This is a notice for social and specific services in accordance with Directive 2014/24/EU Article 74'

Buckinghamshire Adult Learning (BAL) is a service area within Buckinghamshire County Council (the Council), which has contracts with the Education Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) and the Education Funding Agency (EFA) to deliver training opportunities funded by them. Much of these are directly delivered by BAL but, in order to fully use its Apprenticeship and Adult Education Budget (AEB) allocation and ensure it addresses the key priorities of both the Council and the ESFA, it sub-contracts part of its delivery. This enables it to deliver to target markets and in geographical areas that it would otherwise be unable to reach.
Funding for each academic year is provided to Buckinghamshire County Council on a yearly basis from the Education Skills Funding Agency. The Council is therefore seeking applications for the Provision of Delivery of Learning Services.
The approved list will be based upon the type of programme delivery. The approved list will be in place for the next 3 years. All applications must be returned via the Buckinghamshire Business Portal. The tender return date is midday on Thursday 28th June 2018. Applications received after this time and date will not be accepted.
