This two-day training course will enable you to enter the new commissioning process with confidence, equipped with the tools to understand what commissioners want and how you can deliver within the Every Child Matters framework. The course explores the commissioning requirements, as well as providing practical exercises around commissioning applications.
The training will help participants to:
- Identify the key skills, characteristics and standards that organisations need to demonstrate when responding to Pre-Qualification Questionnaires (PQQs), Expressions of Interest (EOIs) and commission tenders.
- Identify the evidence they will need to support their application within local commissioning arrangements.
- Provide a checklist for writing a successful commissioning tender.
Training is suitable for organisations of all sizes, and will benefit voluntary and community sector (VCS) organisations, local authorities and other organisations involved in commissioning.
