European Social Fund 2007–2013 Programme Networking Events
Over the next couple of months, DWP/Jobcentre Plus will be arranging several events aimed at facilitating engagement of providers, who have successfully reached the second stage of the ESF competition with providers interested in delivering elements of the provision as sub contractors to prime providers.
DWP/Jobcentre Plus will not be presenting at these events, it will purely be an opportunity for providers to engage with each other. It will be at the discretion of prime providers whether they wish to deliver any presentation on the day or whether discussions will be on a one to one basis. Potential prime providers should liaise with the contact provided to confirm attendance and to discuss how they would like to participate.
The events are scheduled as detailed below. London and the South East regions facilitated such engagement as part of their PQQ events so further events are not being repeated in these areas.
Providers interested in attending should email the contact provided below to register their interest. Following registering your interest, where a start time is provided please just arrive at the event as no further detail will be published prior to the event. For all other events the contact provided will reply to confirm the start time.
