Description
The purpose of this competition under Lot 1 "Businesses and supporting people into work" is to invite bids to create and deliver a training provision that will enable people in employment and job seekers to improve their numeracy skills for work.
Bidders are expected to work together with businesses to identify specific numeracy skills required in the workplace. More specifically, bidders are expected to:
a) work with businesses to develop and deliver training courses that are bespoke to the sector the business operates in, or the business itself.
b) develop courses aimed at people who cannot apply for certain jobs because of lack of numeracy skills and / or to encourage people to upskill in numeracy in order to access a certain job/ career.
c) Develop additional relevant maths modules embedded into other vocational courses.
Eligible target learners are adults 19+ who have not previously attained a GCSE Grade 4/C or higher maths qualification. They can either be working towards a maths GCSE or Functional Skills Qualification or need specific numeracy skills for their work or progression.
Expected duration of training courses is between 6 to 10 guided learning hours.
