Request for Quotation

QQI Programme Development Project

Context 

This Request for Quote (RFQ) is an invitation to consultants to submit a quotation for the QQI Programme Development Project contract opportunity. The project involves developing a comprehensive QQI Level 5 Major Programme specifically designed to enhance educational and progression opportunities for members of the Traveller community.

The programme will be developed using Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles to ensure it is accessible, inclusive, and responsive to the diverse learning needs of Traveller learners. The initiative aims to provide foundational skills, support personal and professional development, and create clear pathways to further education, apprenticeships, and employment.

This project aligns with national priorities to promote educational equity, social inclusion, and lifelong learning among marginalized groups, with a particular focus on the Traveller community.

The contracted consultant will be responsible for designing the full curriculum, including lesson plans, assessment criteria, and teaching materials. They will also prepare all necessary documentation required for QQI validation and provide ongoing support throughout the validation process to ensure the programme meets QQI standards and achieves successful accreditation.
