Time to Talk: G-Cloud & DOS, Planning for the future in uncertain times and Fraud

Hot on the heels of tomorrow mornings ‘time to talk’ covering Legal Direct Award, we are very pleased to announce three new sessions covering G-Cloud & DOS, Planning for the future in uncertain times and Fraud.  As always, bookings are free of charge and there is no limit on places.

We are busy planning the next sessions in the ‘time to talk’ programme.  Moving into July and August we are looking to bring you events covering:

  • procurement skills for the future
  • payments
  • and a series of sessions covering efficiencies and value

Please do keep your suggestions coming in!

Learning & Development

Please do take the chance to have your say and help inform our training plans for the rest of the year here.  The L&D Group are keen to know your answers to the following three questions:

  1. what are your training priorities now?
  2. has the covid-19 pandemic resulted in any new priorities?
  3. and are there any emerging priorities?

The Group is planning training for the summer covering the following four areas:

  • below threshold & demand management (aimed at “non procurement” staff in schools and departments)
  • Brexit
  • negotiation
  • contract law (a “back to basics” look at T&C’s, and so on)

Watch this space for course dates and resources!
