Education and training services

Tender description

Adult education budget (AEB) is allocated to providers by the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) on an annual basis. Cheshire West and Chester Council receives AEB funding for the purpose of supporting flexible tailored programmes of learning targeted at those furthest from engaging in learning or the workplace. In providing accessible high-quality education and skills provision Cheshire West and Chester Council offers its residents opportunities to gain the skills needed for entering and sustaining work, an apprenticeship/traineeship or other further learning. Through this dynamic purchasing system (DPS), Cheshire West and Chester Council (CW&C) is looking for the opportunity to develop new relationships with post-16 skills and training providers. Providers should focus on progression outcomes for learners and ensure provision, even at lower levels, is clearly aligned to the needs of employers and growth sectors within the borough.
