What is being bought
West Yorkshire Combined Authority (CA) is currently delivering a series of projects including the £3.14m ESF [re]boot project and DfE Digital Skills Bootcamps. Both projects offer individuals the chance to advance their skills, gaining employability and sector specific skills relating to key sectors. The priorities for the next phase of adult skills training will follow a similar methodology but with a greater emphasis on progression and clear lines of sight to employment. There will be a continuation of the work to support those marginalised in the workplace and look for expertise from providers in supporting BAME individuals, women into digital and technical roles, under-employed and underutilised graduates and those unemployed through the COVID-19 fall out. Depending on funding streams the courses can be accredited, endorsed by employers or a mixture of both.With a new wave of adult skills funding being announced the CA is looking to procure a framework of training providers that can respond to calls for specific skills training. A framework of providers with complementary specialisms and experience would enable the CA to respond quickly to the fast-changing skills needs of employers and support the West Yorkshire Economic Recovery Plan. The anticipated range of expenditure through these contracts, which is estimated and not guaranteed is approximated at £30 million over a four year period. Please note that this procurement activity is a majority funded programme and its progression is subject to external funding and internal governance approvals. In order to provide more information and answer questions relating to this opportunity we would like to invite potential participants to a supplier engagement session on February 2nd, 2021 11:30-12:30. via Microsoft Teams. Please contact: Procurement@westyorks-ca.gov.uk to confirm attendance and once the attendance list is finalised a meeting invite will be sent through a minimum of 48 hours before the meeting.

    Lot 6 Graduate Programmes (West Yorkshire Only)
    planned
    Published valueNot published
    West Yorkshire is home to five universities offering direct access to a talent pipeline of graduates. There is much evidence that we have a pool of graduates that are under-employed or underutilised, working in lower skilled roles or the gig economy. The contractor will work collaboratively across West Yorkshire to develop and deliver graduate training programmes to support transition from university to employment. The training programmes would look to increase the number of graduates moving into, and retaining, meaningful employment particularly within the key and growth sectors identified in the Employment & Skills Plan. The tenderer will need to evidence how the programmes would address the progression gap between BAME and non-BAME graduates. It is anticipated that these programmes would include industry partners, graduate recruiters, CIAG / LMI and potentially a mentoring / coaching element.
