UK Central Buying Organisation Looking for Providers To Build New Digital Service

UK’s Crown Commercial Service is looking for a team to build a digital service for public sector users to find and transact with apprenticeship training providers. They will also integrate with a dynamic purchasing system as part of the CCS Supplier Registration Service. A new Apprenticeship Training framework agreement begins this September which provides access to a ‘one stop shop’ solution that allows both central government and wider public sector users to spend their “Apprenticeship and Training Levy” (a 0.5% levy on an employer’s payroll) by purchasing Education and Skills Funding Authority (ESFA) approved training standards and frameworks.
