Description

Durham County Council’s Adult Learning and Skills Service (ALSS) are looking to add providers to the provider panel who can deliver learning and education opportunities for adults aged 19+ within County Durham. The provider panel is a flexible agreement where, at the sole discretion of the Council, it may re-open the panel to allow additional providers to be added to its membership. This provider panel offers no form of exclusivity and the Council is not guaranteeing any level of spend. The provider panel is divided into two lots which categorise service requirements. Lot 1: Community Learning; Lot 2: Accredited Learning. Please note on this re-opening of the provider panel, the Council accepted submissions from ‘new’ providers wishing to gain membership to the provider panel for Lot 1 and/or Lot 2 and is also issuing call-offs for ‘new’ and existing providers with further competition for contracts for: Lot 1: Community Learning; and Lot 2: Accredited Learning.
