Description

West Yorkshire Combined Authority will shortly be tendering for a number of training providers as part of the Skills Connect Programme, to deliver a range of Skills Bootcamps for West Yorkshire residents. Skills Connect is West Yorkshire Combined Authority's (WYCA) fully funded, non-accredited adult training programme. It offers flexible courses at an equivalent to Level 3 and above and has been developed to address employer skills shortages within the region, allowing individuals to access higher level employment opportunities or progression within their current employment. Please see the document attached for further details.

Total Quantity or Scope

All courses are delivered at an equivalent to Level 3 and above and content is created in response to employers’ needs. Courses can be delivered online, in-person or a blend of both to best meet the needs of participants and training requirements. In addition, training is delivered flexibly to ensure that participants with employment, family or other commitments can access the opportunity to upskill. As part of the Skills Connect offer, we are looking to deliver a series of Skills Bootcamps that meet the specific skills needs of employers within the region. The Skills Bootcamps should support in removing barriers and improving equality of access so that participants progress towards higher levels of learning and increase participation from under-represented groups in the take-up of education. This will be achieved through ensuring the training is fully accessible to all individuals, regardless of personal circumstances or needs. … We would also like to invite potential providers to attend a supplier information event on Tuesday 5th November from 11.00am – 12noon. This event will be held online and will include information regarding our intended scope of courses and contracting and delivery plans. To register your place and receive the meeting link, please email Rahimah.Sidat@westyorks-ca.gov.uk.
