Description

The Combined Authority is seeking to award service contract/s to multiple suppliers with a principal purpose of engaging adults aged 19 and above to provide them with the required knowledge and skills that will enable them to enter, and/or gain employment; apprenticeship/traineeship; or progress their employment with their existing employer; or progress their self-employment through the provision of Skills Bootcamps in accordance with the following requirements.

Provision of high-quality and in-demand Level 3-5 (or equivalent and unless otherwise stated in the specification) training across the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority Area.

Skills Bootcamps aim to secure benefits for adults by giving them access to in-demand skills training and a guaranteed interview for a more sustainable, higher-skilled job and higher wages over time. The benefits for employers include helping them fill specific skills shortage vacancies, enabling them to become more productive, more quickly.

The overall aims of the Skills Bootcamps are:

o to deliver flexible training programmes lasting up to 16 weeks, based on local employer / sector 'in-demand' skills needs which may be either regulated (i.e. qualification based) or non-regulated (e.g. based on alignment with industry standards), enabling adults to do training around work and other commitments, looking to gain work, additional responsibilities, or access new opportunities and will offer a guaranteed job interview (in the case of a new job) to individual participants on completion of the course.

o to address the needs of adults (19+) who are full-time and part-time employed, unemployed, returning to work after a break or self-employed, and provide individuals with wider access to opportunities to retrain, update or formalise their skills or acquire specialist skills.

o to address the needs of local employers and the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough economy, to deliver targeted interventions to meet short-medium term demand to fill vacancies and drive productivity. They will help fill medium-higher level vacancies and bring individuals closer to better jobs, by linking them with line of sight to a job/ different role, additional responsibilities or new opportunities/contracts.

o to help fill vacancies and bring individuals closer to better jobs (including those currently in employment), by linking them with line of sight to a job / different role, additional responsibilities or new opportunities / contracts
