description:
The over-arching objective of the NMC in exercising its functions is the protection of the public. The principal functions of the NMC are to establish the standards of education, training, conduct and performance for nurses, midwives and nursing associates and to ensure the maintenance of those standards. This is to ensure that everyone we register can deliver high quality healthcare throughout their careers.
The test of competence is designed to assess a candidate's ability to meet the NMC's standards of proficiency and to practise safely, effectively and in accordance with the NMC's Code of Conduct (the 'Code').
The test currently comprises two elements. The first is a computer-based test (the 'CBT') which assesses a candidate's clinical and numerical knowledge through two multiple choice test papers. The second element is the objective structured clinical examination (the 'OSCE') which is a practical, simulated assessment of the candidate's practical clinical skills and knowledge.
Whilst there are two elements to the test of competence, the test itself should be seen as a single, holistic test. Both parts of the test of competence are designed and developed in conjunction with each other so that the full breadth and depth of a candidate's skills, knowledge, experience and training are tested efficiently and effectively.
The NMC regularly reviews and assesses the format and content of the test of competence to ensure that it remains relevant and appropriate. We are committed to working with the appointed specialist  to maintain the test and its future development.
Who can sit the Test of competence
For applicants to the nursing or midwifery part of the register who were trained outside of the EU or the EEA, the NMC will ask candidates to demonstrate that they hold a qualification that has or could lead to registration in the candidate's home country, which is referred to as our eligibility criteria. As part of our registration process, the candidate is required to sit test of competence to demonstrate that they have the requisite standard of proficiency for admission to the nursing or midwifery part of the register.
Those who were trained in the UK but who did not register their qualification with the NMC within five years of award may also choose to complete the test of competence. In addition, the NMC also requires those wishing to return to the register after a period of absence, to complete a test of competence to demonstrate they are competent and safe to practise or alternatively complete a return to practise  programme.
Satisfactory completion of the test of competence provides the NMC with objective evidence that an applicant has the standard of proficiency. Those who pass the test of competence will be deemed to have met one of the requirements for admission  or readmission to the NMC's register. Consequently, it is imperative that the quality of the test and its consistent delivery and assessment are of the highest standard.
The Code contains the professional standards that NMC registered nurses, midwives and nursing associates must uphold. All registered nurses, midwives and nursing associates must act in line with the Code and while the values and principles set out in the Code may be interpreted in a range of different practice settings, they are not negotiable or discretionary.
More information covering the Code can be found here: https://www.nmc.org.uk/standards/code/
There are now seven platforms within the new standards of proficiency for registered nurses with two skills and procedure annexes (A and B). The standards of proficiency for registered nurses were launched in May 2018 and came into effect on 28 January 2019. These standards can be found here: https://www.nmc.org.uk/standards/standards-for-nurses/standards-of-proficiency-for-registered-nurses/
These standards of proficiency apply to all four fields of nursing practice. However, we recognise that there is an additional depth of knowledge and skills necessary for the applicant's intended field of practice.
The standards of proficiency for nursing associates were agreed in September 2018. These standards align to the new standards of proficiency for registered nurses and allow for smooth progression for those nursing associates who want to become nurses in the future. These will also make it easy to see the distinctions between the nursing and nursing associate roles.
The nursing associate standards of proficiency can be found on our website here: https://www.nmc.org.uk/standards/standards-for-nursing-associates/
Our midwifery standards were updated in 2020, and you can find more details about our midwifery standards here: Standards of proficiency for midwives - The Nursing and Midwifery Council (https://www.nmc.org.uk )
The Supplier shall at all times ensure that the test of competence is designed and able to be delivered in such a way as to always comply with any applicable anti-discrimination legislation and with the NMC's Equality and Diversity "Valuing Diversity" Policy (which may be amended from time to time).
Important:

We are the independent regulator for nurses and midwives in the UK, and nursing associates in England.
Our vision is safe, effective and kind nursing and midwifery that improves everyone's health and wellbeing.
As the independent regulator of more than 758,000 nursing and midwifery professionals, we have an important role to play in making this a reality.
Our core role is to regulate. First, we promote high education and professional standards for nurses and midwives across the UK, and nursing associates in England. Second, we maintain the register of professionals eligible to practise. Third, we investigate concerns about nurses, midwives and nursing associates - something that affects less than one percent of professionals each year. We believe in giving professionals the chance to address concerns, but we'll always take action when needed.
To regulate well, we support our professions and the public. We create resources and guidance that are useful throughout people's careers, helping them to deliver our standards in practice and address new challenges. We also support people involved in our investigations, and we're increasing our visibility so people feel engaged and empowered to shape our work.
Regulating and supporting our professions allows us to influence health and social care. We share intelligence from our regulatory activities and work with our suppliers to support workforce planning and sector-wide decision making. We use our voice to speak up for a healthy and inclusive working environment for our professions.
The NMC are excited to announce our intention to go to market for our future test design and development supplier that can meet the existing and future needs for our test of competence. A crucial part of this contract will be for our newly appointed supplier to offer both educational and clinical services either through their organisation or through those that they contract with

Merseyside Violence Reduction Partnership (MVRP) is commissioning for Service(s) over 15-months (optional contract extension of further 12 months) to provide evidence-based therapeutic interventions using a whole family approach. ‘Whole family’ therapeutic approaches means that family members are clinically triaged for their individual needs, but interventions are co-ordinated/concurrently delivered.
This Service specification for tender has been designed to respond to the needs of children, young people and families from across Merseyside, as identified by them. There is clear need for earlier mental health and wellbeing support for families right across Merseyside and so this tender is open to applications from all boroughs equally. There is a maximum budget of £1.2 million per borough to reach a minimum number of 200 families per borough/programme. We advise bidders to seek funding only for what they require/can deliver in the timeframe. Where there is more than one high quality proposal, there may be scope in this budget to deliver more than one Service in different areas of Merseyside. However, MVRP will only fund one Service per borough and so encourages partnership/collaborative applications.
The Service(s) should take a primary or secondary / early intervention and prevention approach, receiving referrals from a combination of community/non-statutory and statutory services. This is not a crisis intervention service(s). The Service(s) will be community-based in Merseyside and will need to evidence cultural intelligence/competence to best meet the needs of the community, addressing inequality of access to mental health and wellbeing support. It aims to support recovery from trauma/adversity and build resilience to reduce vulnerabilities of children and young people from experiencing violence. Bidders will need to evidence social value.
MVRP are looking for Provider(s) who are equipped to mobilise quickly to explore this early intervention, whole family approac

The aim of this piece of work will be to develop educational resources, workplans and tools to support health visitor’s to embed genomics into their practice.
We require an organisation with genomic and health visiting expertise and knowledge to work with the GEP on:
•	The development of additional educational resources to support learning.  It was clear from the previous evaluation that whilst there has been a shift in confidence, translating this into health visiting practice requires greater support and learning opportunities for this area of the workforce.
•	Identifying and implementing opportunities for ongoing learning in practice to sustain workforce development. This could be the use of clinical supervision, refresh sessions and case studies but we are open to other proposals.
•	Building on previous work and introducing new approaches to maximise awareness among health visitors in the United Kingdom.  Consideration should be given to how education and training resources can be promoted and disseminated, consulting with other organisations who have potential to reach this area of the workforce.
•	Scoping a sustainable education and training model for future development of the health visitor workforce in genomics.

description: The Council is awarding a Contract for The Provision of a Challenging Behaviour Service for Children with Learning Disabilities and/or Autistic Spectrum Disorder - Positive Behaviour, Autism, Learning Disability and Mental Health Service (PALMS), without prior publication of a call for competition in the Find a Tender Service. Please see Annex D1, Section 2 for further information.

description: Adult and other education services

procurementMethodRationale:
The Positive Behaviour, Autism, Learning Disability and Mental Health Service (PALMS), delivered by Hertfordshire Community NHS Trust (HCT) is a countywide service that offers a specialist multi-disciplinary approach to children and young people (CYP) aged 0-18 who have a global Learning Disability (LD) and/or Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
PALMS offer includes range of psychological interventions for challenging behaviour, mental health, sleeping, toileting, feeding and eating difficulties, and/or problematic sexualised behaviours for CYP with ASD and/or LD; crisis support to meet the needs of CYP through multi-agency response to crisis, including joint assessments, follow up & brief interventions. They host the Special School Mental Health Support Team (MHST) and provide consultation and training for other providers (health, social care and education) who support CYP and their families/carers, as well as providing clinical gatekeeping to out of County specialist mental health and challenging behaviour services.
The PALMS model of support has been in existence in Hertfordshire since end of 2014 and since then has adapted to meet the local needs of CYP and the local Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) system and is now well embedded and established, with a proven track record of improving outcomes for those children and young people who are unbale to access mainstream service due to their additional needs.
Commissioners from the Integrated Health and Care Commissioning Team (IHCCT), working on behalf of Hertfordshire County Council (HCC) and Hertfordshire and West Essex Integrated Care Board (HWE ICB), have undertaken a market research exercise in 2021/22 to understand if there is a comparable provision to the PALMS service. Due to the specialist and comprehensive nature of the services offered by PALMS the market is very limited, and whilst a handful of providers, who could deliver elements of the service were identified, none were able to deliver the entire service offer that is currently delivered by PALMS.
As a Hertfordshire CAMHS system, it is important that we work together with partners (who also have obligations to provide health services) to provide mental health services for CYP with ASD and/or LD that are adaptive to meet their needs, as well as being responsive to the increasing demand, changing acuity and significant challenges with retention and recruitment of workforce. Such a partnership has been developed between HCC and HCT with the common objectives of this collaboration focusing on improving the health, wellbeing and Mental Health of Hertfordshire's Children and Young People, joint working to ensure local accountability for services and public expenditure and decision-making that is underpinned by transparency and the open sharing of information between partners and with the public.
In accordance with Regulation 12(7) of the Public Contracts Regulations - public contracts between entities within the public sector - the specific conditions are met by this collaboration working arrangement. Being guided by the key principles of the existing collaboration between the partners (HCC and HCT) we can ensure that both parties working towards common goals and objectives and act in the best public interest.

3.	RCoA is experienced in setting and monitoring standards of care and in providing expert guidance and advice on policy to relevant bodies (including HEE, NHSI/E and GMC) on matters relating to the provision of anaesthesia, intensive care and pain medicine services in England.
4.	RCoA has access to over 24,000 RCOA Fellows and Members registered internationally, including all Anaesthetic trainees in England and a large number of Anaesthesia Associates, Anaesthetic Consultant Doctors, Specialty and Associate Specialist (SAS) doctors. These groups make up the primary stakeholder networks for HEE work to develop the Anaesthesia Associate (and wider Medical Associate) profession.
5.	RCoA operates a number of expert reference groups, forums and sub-committees including:  the Association of Anaesthesia Associates, the Faculty of Pain Medicine, and the Anaesthetists in Training Committee.
