Description

The purpose of this PIN is to initiate market engagement and it is not being used as a call for competition. This PIN is intended to: 1. Inform the market of the upcoming procurement process for the Wave 5 Marketing T Level, being commissioned by the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (IfATE) (and therefore enable the market / potential suppliers to begin to plan for this); and 2. Advise as to the upcoming forthcoming market engagement event which will be held virtually via Microsoft Teams on 12th July 2022, with presentations from key note speakers about the forthcoming Wave 5 T Level procurement. There will also be one to one sessions offered where suppliers can meet with the procurement team, and a workshop on how to bid for public contracts. IfATE will be the contracting authority, subject to commencement of the relevant provisions of the Technical and Further Education Act 2017.of the Technical and Further Education Act 2017. References to IfATE should be read with this in mind. T Levels are a new programme of Technical Education that will introduce a high quality technical option alongside an academic option for students aged 16 to 19. This is being implemented following the recommendation by the Independent Panel on Technical Education - the Sainsbury report. The Sainsbury Report also recommended that a single body or consortium should deliver each qualification under an "exclusive licence" that would be awarded for a fixed time period following open competition. The purpose of the proposed procurement will be to select and appoint an Awarding Organisation (AO) to be responsible for developing and delivering the Wave 5 T Level qualification, under an exclusive licensing approach. The expected scope of the role of the AO is that it would be responsible for:- designing the content of the qualification;- upskilling providers (further education schools and colleges);- providing of learning and teaching materials;- updating content; and- delivering qualification assessment services. The pathway in scope for the Wave 5 Procurement is :Marketing Finalised outline content for the pathway will be available on the IfATE website at https://www.instituteforapprenticeships.org/t-levels/final-outline-content/ in due course.
