The Framework Agreement will run for a period of up to 4 years, from 1st April 2023 until 31st March 2027 (1+1+1)
An annual delivery schedule will be developed in accordance with workforce demand in January each year, as defined through the annual training needs analysis and annual SCWWDP priorities. Therefore, giving Training Providers on the framework at least 3-months’ notice of intention to commission each course.
