Youth Justice Worker Level 4 Qualification

Questions to the Market

1. Given the outline of the requirement and estimated volumes above, please can you provide a rough price per learner for this course?
2. Does your organisation have an existing course that could be adapted for this qualification, or would you require design costs for a brand-new qualification? If design costs are required, what timescales would your organisation require and roughly how much would the design cost?
3. We estimate that learner withdrawals will be low as this qualification will be voluntary and learners will have applied to enrol. If a learner drops out at the early stages of the course, YCS would want to use the budget for a different learner therefore YCS does not expect to pay the full course costs for someone who drops out of the course. What percentage of the course cost would need to be paid if a learner withdrew at a) 1 month b) 3 months and c) 6 months?
4. An aspect of the tender will relate to social value. Which social value themes are most relevant to your organisation and why? Please see the policy notice below for the themes

PPN 002: Taking account of social value in the award of contracts - GOV.UK
