What is being bought

The NPCC Cybercrime Team has developed a number of courses with a private contractor, where the NPCC Cybercrime Team owns the intellectual property rights of those course. The NPCC Cybercrime Team would like to continue with the consistency of providing training across the network to ensure a base level of understanding and knowledge across the Team Cyber UK network. The courses were designed to provide technical knowledge to police officers and staff in order for them to use the technical knowledge within their existing roles. The NPCC Cybercrime Programme would also like these courses, where possible, to reflect learning objectives that would support staff to obtain industry standard qualifications. The NPCC Cybercrime Programme would like the provider to provide support and credits, where possible, to delegates who wish to obtain the industry standard qualification that the specialist training courses are aligned with.
