The framework will provide training and learning services commissioned on an as-required basis throughout its duration, with provision focused on ensuring housing staff have the skills, knowledge, experience and behaviours needed to deliver safe and effective services. The procurement is driven particularly by the Competence and Conduct Standard, which comes into effect in October 2026 and requires social housing providers to evidence staff competence. The estimated contract value is £166,675, although the framework duration is not stated in the available information. Services will be delivered in Leicester and the wider UKF21 region. The critical requirement is that the training provision must support the Council in evidencing compliance with the Competence and Conduct Standard.
