Skills Transition Centre

Tender description

Forth Valley College (FVC) is seeking information for the supply, delivery installation of equipment and software for our Skills Transition Centre (STC) project. The STC is a key project within the Falkirk Growth Deal Innovation theme and will be led and delivered by FVC. It will directly contribute to the Falkirk Growth Deal vision “to create a dynamic and distinctive area at the heart of central Scotland”. The STC will bring together a broad spectrum of partners to create a focus for skills delivery within the context of significant transformational change as businesses, communities and individuals in our area transition to Net Zero. The STC will ensure skills are integral to the success of the Growth Deal and central to Falkirk and Grangemouth’s successful Just Transition. It will support the current and future workforce to become resilient, agile, climate literate and fully equipped to take advantage of opportunities in our rapidly changing economy. To support this transformation, FVC will invest in state-of-the-art, equipment/kit with the associated skills programme development over the next 10 years which will help to meet these needs – responding to emerging sectors as well as supporting transitioning industries including down-stream petroleum, chemicals and polymers based in the adjacent Grangemouth cluster.
