LCRCA - Training Provider Framework

The Skills & Apprenticeship Hub Team are part of the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority and funded by the European Social Fund (ESF) and Strategic Investment Fund (SIF). The Skills & Apprenticeship Hub are establishing a ‘LCR Priority Training Support’ framework funded by ESF and SIF to support locally based employers. The priority training areas have been predominantly developed from a survey undertook by the Growth Platform with Liverpool City Region employers in June 2021. The Skills & Apprenticeship Hub team is looking to invite suitably experienced and qualified organisations to tender to deliver short yet focused and challenging training programmes that address the skills shortages highlighted in the survey. The identified priority training support topics have been separated into 19 Lots. The training surrounds the following themes: - • Leadership & Management • Basic Business Skills • Soft Support Skills • Hospitality Out of the 19 Lots, potential suppliers/tenderers should only apply to deliver a minimum of 1 Lot to a maximum of 3 Lots. If a supplier bids for more than 3 Lots, only the first 3 lots received will be considered.
