Training and Embedding Trauma Informed Practice

The procurement contact named on the official notice.

General Medical Council (GMC) publishes Education & Training work continuously — 54 notices, roughly one every 46 days. This is a stream to watch, not a cycle to wait for.

56% of General Medical Council (GMC)’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 →

We are seeking to procure training and learning in trauma-informed practice (TIP) to support our plan to embed TIP into our communications and engagement with members of the public, various stakeholder groups and members of staff.

We are developing our understanding of TIP and its application to various contexts within which we work.

We would like to explore how to provide learning and training to colleagues for these various contexts.

Our early thinking is that there will be several specific learning and training offers, including but not limited to: - An introduction to TIP, including principles and concepts - TIP in the context of maternity services and adverse incidents - TIP in the context of sexual misconduct in clinical settings - TIP in the setting of a Medical Practitioners Tribunal Hearing - TIP for internal communications, wellbeing and with management hierarchies.

Aspects of learning will reach a total of approximately 1,000 members of staff and associates.

We would like the offer to include a variety of methods of delivery including in-person and online training sessions, and e-learning.

We envisage a tiered offer, whereby colleagues who regularly engage with individuals who may have experienced trauma or may be otherwise vulnerable would receive more in-depth training, and those whose roles do not include any such direct engagement would receive lighter touch training.

We’re interested in hearing from organisations with expertise in TIP or who deliver training in this area to help us to develop our understanding of what’s available and how to structure a programme of training and learning.

We anticipate that there may be a need for several specialist providers based on the various contexts set out above and we’re open to using a number of providers broken down into Lots.

We are also interested in hearing from organisations who may be interested in providing expert advice, guidance and support on a consultancy basis, to support our work to embed TIP into our operations, communications and engagement activity.

We will be holding Supplier Days via MS Teams on Monday 16th February 2026 and Wednesday 4th March 2026.

There will be 30-minute slots available on both days.

To book a slot please contact the GMC Procurement Team email gmctenders@gmc-uk.org quoting the GMC reference GMC2359.

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.
