Description

The requirement is for the provision of key learning for the Europe Faculty about Europe and the EU, for the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) and FCDO Services (FCDOS). The FCDO and FCDO Services (the Authority) are looking to put in place a contract with a supplier for the provision of a high quality learning programme for the Europe Faculty in the FCDO's Future of Europe Department. We are seeking a long term and expert training partner to provide core practitioner learning on Europe and the EU. We envisage an interactive segment of around three days (delivered virtually at present) with some pre-learning, but are open to discussions about the best balance. The aim of this learning is to give policy makers in the FCDO and wider civil service a strong grounding in the EU and its institutions, as well as in how HMG can work effectively with its European partners. The contract is for 3 years with 2 optional 12 month extensions.
