About

Devon County Council is seeking suppliers to join an Open Framework to commission high-quality adult skills provision supporting programmes funded through the Adult Skills Fund, Free Courses for Jobs, Skills Bootcamps and other future skills initiatives aligned with local and national workforce needs. The Framework is split into three Lots: Lot 1 – Adult Skills Fund and Free Courses for Jobs, Lot 2 – Skills Bootcamps, and Lot 3 – Future Skills Projects, with a single common set of sectors and geographical areas applying across all Lots. The Framework aims to enable flexible, responsive delivery that helps adults develop skills for sustainable employment and career progression while meeting employer demand and contributing to economic growth. Any contract values published are estimates for information only, subject to confirmation of funding and may be revised; there is no guarantee of business or award of call-off contract. A new submission deadline and revised document for 'Framework Two' will be published when the Framework is reopened; current documents are available for information only and there may be non-substantial changes upon reopening.
