The brief

The Department for the Economy (DfE) is seeking suppliers for the delivery of ApprenticeshipsNI 2025 (Apps25) programme.

The Apps25 programme provides Level 2 and Level 3 apprenticeship training provision for employed people who are contracted to work a minimum of 21 hours or more per week.

The programme provides an opportunity to work towards completing an industry approved apprenticeship framework at Level 2 and/or level 3.

The core components of the framework include Employee Rights and Responsibilities, a relevant competence-based qualification, a knowledge-based qualification (or a combined qualification, as appropriate), and Essential Skills, if required.

The Buyer will fund the cost of the off-the-job training up to the amounts specified in the pricing schedule for all eligible apprentices, and across all supported sectors at Levels 2 and 3.
