Contracts will be for the delivery of learning against the funding the college receives from the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) for the Adult Education Budget (AEB) for learners aged 19+. Delivery must meet the regulations outlined in the ESFA Funding Rules. Providers should focus on care qualifications that offer progression outcomes for learners and ensure provision, even at lower levels, is clearly aligned to the needs of employers as well as supporting the College's rationale for subcontracting which can be found on our website [hrc.ac.uk](https://www.hrc.ac.uk/about-hrc/partnerships-and-subcontractors) HRC is seeking providers that can deliver to a maximum of 60 learners within a 25 mile radius of either of our 2 campuses and all delivery should be completed by 31/07/2023.
