Disgrifiad o'r nwyddau neu'r gwasanaethau sydd eu hangen

The Council aim to be able to provide a broad range of individual courses, qualifications and training for employees and residents as required, in addition to planned, bespoke courses/training packages/pathways for groups of individuals.

The Council has developed a robust, single employment support model through the coordinated delivery of Welsh Government’s Communities for Work Plus (CfW+) and the UK Government’s Shared Prosperity Fund (SPF) People and Skills Pillar. As part of this model the Caerphilly Employability Team support our residents (both employed and unemployed) to gain appropriate and relevant qualifications as well as access to courses to enable them to upskill and obtain employment in their chosen route.

The Council aims to be able to provide a broad range of individual courses, qualifications and training for residents as required, in addition to planned, bespoke courses/training packages/pathways for groups of individuals. Courses that can include technical and vocational qualifications, licences, and courses with a specific focus on growth areas aligning to local labour market needs. Qualifications and courses that can range from entry level upwards, from accredited to non-accredited.

The Council is currently putting in place a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to cover a wide variety of Training needs which will be published shortly for applicants to join. This DPS will include the requirements listed above, however the Employability team currently have an immediate requirement for some bespoke training courses and pathways over first quarter of the new financial year 2024-2025.

Call off contracts will be placed via this Agreement for individual and group training pathways for CCBC residents and employees covering the following pathways:

- Construction.

- Security Sector.

- Call Centre.

- Digital Skills.

- Green Skills.

During the April to June period (2024/25) the Council will require a combination of individual and group sessions to be carried out online or face to face (F2F) within a central Caerphilly location to allow access to the courses across the borough.

Providers will be required to confirm the cost per individual or group, either for individual courses or as a whole pathway as outlined in the Pricing Schedule document in the procurement documents pack.

The specific number of candidates and requirements is not yet known and will only become apparent as individuals are identified and request for the relevant session / courses are made during the period. There is no guarantee of individual contracts under this agreement as the prices received in submissions will be ranked in order of cost and ‘called-off’ as and when required during the period subject to requirements, availability, type and location.
