Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about training services, staff training, training provision in the UK public sector.

  • What kind of training does the public sector buy?

    Vocational and licence-based training such as HGV driving and welding, safety and compliance refreshers, professional development and leadership courses, and specialist clinical or technical training all appear. Much of it is bought through multi-supplier frameworks split into lots by subject or region, rather than as single standalone contracts.

  • Are these mostly framework agreements or single contracts?

    Frameworks are common, particularly from further education colleges, NHS trusts and local authorities renewing training provision for several years at a time, but plenty of single, shorter contracts for a named course or qualification appear as well.

  • What CPV codes cover training tenders?

    Training notices carry 80500000 (Training services) and 79632000 (Personnel-training services).

  • Which frameworks are used to buy training services in the UK public sector?

    The Government Commercial Agency runs the Learning and Training Services dynamic purchasing system. Central government departments, NHS bodies, regulators and councils use it to buy professional qualification courses, leadership and coaching programmes, mental health training for managers and CPD platforms, often by rapid award or further competition.

  • How do I find training contracts before they are formally tendered?

    Read workforce and training plans, learning strategies, framework renewals and expiry dates for existing contracts, which show training work coming due ahead of a notice. On Stotles you can track those signals and the buyers behind them, then follow a notice from pre-tender through to award.
