About

Cambridgeshire County Council awarded a contract to Form the Future for the Greater Cambridge Partnership Skills and Apprenticeship service.

The service aimed to increase successful, high-quality apprenticeships across Greater Cambridge, building on existing provision that had met the target of 420 additional apprenticeships by 2020 set out in the Greater Cambridge City Deal.

The expanded service was to cover a wider focus, working with businesses, educational establishments, and individuals looking to retrain, and collaborating with local government bodies such as the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority to ensure joined-up working.

Responsibilities included raising awareness of apprenticeships, supporting businesses to understand apprenticeships and signposting to relevant funding, supporting retraining, and supporting careers advice in education at all levels.

The contract value was AUD 2,248,807.
