    Brief

    Herefordshire Council is gathering information from training providers, educational institutions, employers, and other stakeholders to develop its future Skills Bootcamp programme. Skills Bootcamps are flexible, employer-led training courses that help adults gain sector-specific skills leading to employment, career progression, apprenticeships, or self-employment opportunities. This Request for Information (RFI) seeks stakeholder input on: current market conditions, existing training provision, delivery models, provider capacity, employer engagement strategies, and skills gaps across the county. The feedback will shape the design of Skills Bootcamp delivery, procurement strategy, and commissioning decisions. The Council prioritises proposals that feature strong employer involvement, clear employment pathways, support for local economic growth, address workforce shortages, and improve job prospects for residents facing employment barriers. Note: This is a preliminary market engagement exercise only and does not represent a formal procurement process or call for competition.
