A client of the British Council in Chile is looking for a publicly funded University or Further Education college in the UK to provide a 6 to 8 week TVET course, focused on the development of technical skills. The course should be made up a practical component (40-60% of the study time) in which the students will work in a company, industry setting or a classroom designed to simulate the ‘real world’. The programme should lead to some form of certification, describing the skills acquired.

Our client, a government body in Chile, is open to receiving proposals in any technical area but would be particularly interested to receive proposals focussed on a UK area of expertise. They are only looking for proposals from colleges, technical institutes and universities, with technical programmes.

Proposals should also include classes of English for specific purposes, to compliment the technical studies. These classes can be run by the same institution or could be run by a PLS with whom you have a link.

The call is open to all institutions who can comply with the requirements set below:

I. Duration: 6-8 weeks

II. Course Dates: January 2020

III. Group Description:
A group of 10 Chilean TVET students, with a minimum of B1 English level, wishing to improve their technical skills, gain experience of studying in the UK and improve their English.
