Tender description
The University of Edinburgh is looking for a suitable training provider to support University Finance Directorate staff in obtaining their professional finance qualifications. This contract will focus on the CIMA (the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants) CGMA professional qualification. There is scope to extend this to additional qualifications if they are fully supported, however, the core requirement of this contract is support for the CGMA qualification. The chosen training provider will be a CIMA registered tuition provider and will be expected to support University staff working through the CGMA professional qualifications. This will include supporting University staff with all necessary training, core study materials, managing assessments and monitoring progress through the qualification. In addition, the chosen provider will be required to keep the University contract manager with progress reports to ensure progress and success are monitored and recorded and all efforts are coordinated to ensure staff are fully supported in their studies. The University has a diverse staff body who have a range of different needs and requirements, and consequently flexibility in study methods would be considered beneficial.
