Qualified Provider Framework

As of 31st October 2008, the LSC has opened a Qualified Provider Framework (QPF) for providers of education and training services. The Qualified Provider Framework is a maintained list of all providers from which the LSC will secure education and training services. This list will incorporate those providers with whom the LSC will negotiate and/or invite to tender.

All Responsive applications will now need to be made via the Qualified Provider Framework – please see the attached link for further details and access to the e-tendering portal.
