COVID-19 Employment and Skills transition support

CORNWALL DEVELOPMENT COMPANY LTD publishes Education & Training work continuously — 16 notices, roughly one every 1 day. This is a stream to watch, not a cycle to wait for.

24% of CORNWALL DEVELOPMENT COMPANY LTD’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →

CLLD is launching a new call to facilitate the transition of those workers who were affected by COVID-19 and have lost their job or those are looking to return to work after a period of unemployment.

We recognise there are particular challenges faced by people who worked in the hospitality, arts, retail and tourism sectors and also would like to see a particular focus on those who are over 50 or have disabilities.

The call is to offer training, confidence building, and skills development that will enable these now out-of-work individuals to either: 1.

Re-skill or up-skill in order to promptly pivot to new sectors (for example: care, customer services or self-employment) 2.

Pro-actively prepare for the new post-COVID-19 job opportunities (local tourism, training on sanitary measures, hygiene, Health and Safety) through training, confidence building, and skills development.

Total grant funding amount available: £280,000 (European Social Fund - ESF) Expected intervention rate: 80% Match: to be found from non-EU sources.

Minimum total project costs: Projects costs will have to be over £50,000 (i.e.

Minimum £40,000 CLLD ESF grant per project).

Free to start. Named contacts come from published notices; the strategy is generated from the buyer’s news, accounts and people.

Five included while we’re in beta, and the agent asks before it spends on any paid step.
