WIDP has developed a waste sector specific training course for Local Authority Contract Managers. Drawing on WIDP's knowledge of the waste sector and Local Partnerships' (LP's) established training capability, the training will cover all aspects of contract management reflected in this guidance. It will be modular in format so Authorities can choose which modules they wish to cover. This training normally takes the form of a two day course although this can be tailored to meet the Authority's requirements.
The training course, is provided without charge to the Authority. Any Authority interested in arranging a course for their Contract Management Team should submit an email request to widp.programmeoffice@defra.gsi.gov.uk
