The overall aim of this project is to carry out an independent evaluation of the delivery of the two professional development programmes in 2020/21 academic year. The programme is being delivered by a single delivery partner who will establish small cohorts of participants across the country. The development programme for mentors in FE consists of four different strands of activity: - The creation of a mentoring framework and accompanying guides for mentees, mentors and leaders in the FE sector. - A small-scale, desk-based review of effective mentoring training. - Financial support for mentoring professional development in the FE sector. - Professional development programmes for mentors. We are seeking a tenderer to evaluate the fourth strand of activity. ## CPV classification Evaluation consultancy services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/c3c7441a-c421-4f2d-bfa4-b45c02b79381) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
