Post an Opportunity/tender
Opportunities/Tenders
TrainerBase Login
The Learning Practitioners' Association offer a most cost effective way of sourcing new trainers. The facility can also be used as a simple and efficient way of updating your own "Associate List".
Note:
Please be aware that you will need to add the opportunity within 10 minutes as the server will terminate the session if no data has been posted within that time. I would advise to create the opportunity description in Word, offline and then copy and paste into the form on the next page.
In order to comply with the Data Protection Act and to simplify identification of possible work opportunities; a rule has been introduced that compels advertisers/tenders to define clearly what is being offered:
(A) A Tender (TDR) is for a real job by virtue of an existing training requirement. The requirement may be directly with the advertiser or be a contract between the advertiser and its client;
(B) A Prospect (PPT) is for a real job for which the advertiser has an identified possible future need, e.g. the advertiser is bidding or tendering to a potential or existing client;
(C) A Capability Build (CPB) is indicative of an advertiser seeking to grow trainer capability in new or existing areas and as such carries no indication of a job or work being available;
(D) Expression of Interest EOI) is to source likely providers of training service and may or may not be for a particular identified need. An EOI is a preliminary step and in itself does not constitute a tender submission.
(E) A Business Proposition (BSP) is an invitation to enquire about a business related offer which may require an investment that may result in a commercial return. This includes; distributor/agency offers, exhibition sharing or project development partnerships.
(F) A Term of Employment (TOE) is for work opportunities, full, part time and temporary, where the company will contract the individual as an employee, through the company payroll system. (These opportunities require membership to access but do not require a subscription to read).
(G) A Brokered lead (BKL) is for a contract opportunity that has been sourced by The Learning Practitioners' Association team and invitations to tender are managed and selected by The Learning Practitioners' Association. (These opportunities do not require a subscription to read, but the lack of a viewable profile may compromise the brokerage teams ability to evaluate a member's suitability. Applying for a Brokered lead commits a member to pay commission of no more than 15% on successful contracts during the first 12% months of engagement).
Agent notice:
The Learning Practitioners' Association welcomes Tenders posted by an individual or company on behalf of another. However The Learning Practitioners' Association requests that if the person posting the tender is acting as an Agent for another third party, they state they are acting as an agent in the tender description. For full details of this notice please read the Terms and conditions page.
Employment Agency Regulations:
Whilst The Learning Practitioners' Association was set up as a publication and does not hold itself out to be an EA, under current interpretations of the law, it can in essence, fall within the scope of the regulations. To ensure that TB falls outside the scope, it now has in place a mechanism whereby "individual" members cannot be charged for what is perceived as a work finding service. This is not something TB wanted to do but is forced to comply with regulations.
