The Procurement Act 2023: Support and training
Knowledge drops
Knowledge drops are a range of short broadcast presentations (available on demand) providing a high-level overview of the changes to the procurement regulations. These are aimed at those who have regular interactions with procurement needing a general level of awareness of the new rules.
To view the knowledge drops, please visit GOV.UK
E-learning modules
The official Procurement Act 2023 e-learning modules are the key learning product to support practitioners in implementing the new regime. The modules are aimed at all operational procurement staff, including those whose main role is to run tenders or let contracts, or procurement/commercial professionals whose main role is to manage suppliers or contracts.
The sessions are made up of 10 x 1-hour modules to provide staff with a deeper understanding of the Act, covering areas such as the key changes, the competitive flexible procedure and how these updates will influence different phases of a procurement journey.
Once completed, procurement practitioners will receive a certificate and email signature badge.
More information about the training can be found through the Government Commercial College - you can sign up to the website to find the e-learning modules and receive all the latest updates.
Communities of Practice
The formal learning and development is supported by Communities of Practice, a peer forum and series of virtual meet-ups where practitioners can support each other by discussing best practice, challenges and opportunities within the new regime.
You can access Communities of Practice through the Government Commercial College.
