Software Cornwall Agile Training Programme

Software Cornwall has secured project funding through the European Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF), known locally as the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Growth Programme, from the European Union's European Social fund for a project named Employer Led Skills (ELS).

The intention is that the training offered will deliver two days of intensive training one in 2021 and one in 2022 in a range of Agile Methodologies to approximately 300 people (subject to uptake).

One of the dominant contributory factors to the region's productivity and economic growth is the level of education, training and skills within the working age population. The specification seeks to address a range of issues concerning the development and upskilling of Cornwall and IoS's workforce in the Software Sector. It aims to help businesses to develop and grow, become more resilient and more productive.

Training providers with expertise in the following areas are encouraged to submit a proposal to be considered for inclusion:

• Software Delivery
• Team Working
• Agility in Business
• Product Design and Management

Software Cornwall is looking for training providers who can offer

• delivery of non-accredited Agile training that will cover all job roles within an agile organisation or organisations looking to embrace the agile methodology.
• a training package which is an opportunity for companies to send a team to both enhance their own learning but also meet and network with other like-minded companies to explore new ideas. -participants the opportunity to develop transferrable skills, both into and within sectors.

All training MUST be delivered in Cornwall as per the requirements of the EU funding.

Software Cornwall require the training to be delivered between September 2021 and December 2021 ideally face to face and then another training package delivered between May 2022 and July 2022.
