The fund was announced in the Prisons Strategy White Paper (December 2021) to enable prisons to work with organisations to deliver sector-specific training to meet the changing needs of the economy and smooth the path from prison to employment. The programme offers employers the opportunity to develop and run bespoke skills training courses for prisoners approaching release. These courses will provide prison leavers with a route to work, and employers with a talent pool that matches their specific needs and values. In issuing this Prior Information Notice, the MoJ is seeking to inform the market of this planned procurement with a view to having a virtual market engagement session on 5th December 2022 at 14:00. This will be recorded if you are unable to attend this session. The Future Skills Programme (FSP) is separate to the Prisoner Education Service (PES) programme for which some suppliers may have already registered. Both programmes form part of our overarching ambition to ensure prisoners can access the skills and qualifications they need to get into employment on release. To access the FSP Market Engagement and related information, organisations need to register separately on Jaggaer, following the instructions in this PIN. Businesses (suppliers) interested in participating in the FSP Market Engagement should confirm their interest by 30th November 2022 by email to Futureskillsprogramme@justice.gov.uk clearly stating "FSP Market Engagement" in the subject line. The form of response should be limited to the provision of a single point of contact (full company name, contact name, job title, e-mail address and telephone number). The Authority will then issue invitations to all interested parties, confirming the timings and MS Teams link to the event. The PES programme will deliver future Adult Prisoner Education Services (PES) in England. Following Market Engagement with a wide range of prospective suppliers, we will shortly commence Market Warming – look out for communications coming soon. If you have not registered for PES market warming and next steps you can still register here https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a3b29677-949f-42c2-98be-250417ef9603 ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 03000000, 09000000, 32000000, 32523000, 34000000, 35000000 - **Delivery regions:** UK - **Description:** Our Vision The Future Skills Programme will equip prisoners approaching the end of their sentence with the necessary skills and employer relationships to secure sustainable employment on release.
