In 2025, the Council established a multi‑category standing list for the provision of training services across Leicestershire and the wider East Midlands region. As we enter the second year of the four‑year arrangement, existing providers will remain on the standing list. This reopening is intended solely to allow new providers to apply for inclusion.
The standing list is divided into categories based on the type of training provided, providers can apply to cover Category 1 or Category 2. Please see tender documents for more information.
