The Sub-Contracted Provision of Education and Training Services, Barking and Dagenham College

Barking & Dagenham College (BDC) is a large successful further education college with approximately 12,500 students (9000 are 19+, 3,500 aged 16 - 18) located in East London. At BDC, delivery of training through sub-contracted partners is firmly linked to the College's strategic objectives and to the local, regional and national agenda of skills development, employer engagement and widening participation in education, training and employment. The college seeks to work with organisations who have established links with those groups and individuals that have been traditionally under-represented in education, training and employment and that remain \"hard to reach\". The College also seeks to increase the breadth of its offer by engaging commercial organisations that deliver specialist provision.
