The brief

This notice is to alert the market that NHS England has a requirement for Accreditation Services for the Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism.

NHS England is issuing this notice to inform the market of its requirement for Accreditation Services related to the Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training on Learning Disability and Autism.

This procurement aims to establish an accreditation scheme in response to statutory obligations under the Health and Care Act 2022.

It represents a key priority aligned with legislative requirements introduced by the Act and the newly published Oliver McGowan Code of Practice.

The Oliver McGowan Mandatory Training is the standardised and preferred training for health and social care staff.

It has been specifically developed for this purpose and is co-produced and co-delivered by approved trainers with lived experience of learning disability and autism, who are fairly compensated for their contributions.

The accreditation scheme will provide quality assurance for the delivery of this training.

An Open Invitation to Tender (ITT) will be conducted, as defined by the Procurement Act 2023, to appoint a provider responsible for developing and administering accreditation standards for trainers.

The scheme must maintain consistency with the training model and prioritise co-production with individuals who have lived experience of learning disability and autism.

We welcome feedback on the specification and requirements ahead of the formal tender process.
