Description

Using Government funding, provided by the Department for Education, Suffolk County Council (SCC) have appointed a selection of learning and training providers to deliver a range of Skills Bootcamps across a Norfolk and Suffolk geography during the financial year 2025/26. SCC are the contract holders and, working closely alongside Norfolk County Council, are acting as a consortium for ongoing programme development, monitoring and reporting throughout the year to ensure that delivery meets and addresses local needs as well as the funding criteria and requirements of the Department for Education. The Norfolk and Suffolk Skills Bootcamp Programme will provide a range of training courses aligned directly with the recruitment and skills needs of employers. Please note, the contract values shown below include the optional 12-month extension periods. Each extension is subject to the satisfactory performance of the relevant supplier and the availability of funding. Although the contract values are stated both excluding and including VAT, not all suppliers are VAT registered, and in some cases the services may be VAT exempt (for eligible bodies).
