Gloucestershire County Council awarded a contract to University of Warwick, The Open University, and University of Gloucestershire for a Level 6 Social Work Degree Apprenticeship framework.

The framework, effective from 2020 and in place for 4 years, enables existing council staff in Adults and Children's clusters to achieve a social work qualification, with the opportunity extended to suitable external candidates subject to internal interest.

The Council aimed to maximize apprenticeship levy contributions and embed apprenticeships in workforce planning and service transformation.

Call-off contracts under the framework can last up to 3 years.

The contract value is £621,000.
