The routes will be as listed by the Skills England guidance. The framework will replicate the structure that is provided by Skills England. If the structure is amended by the institute then the framework structure will be amended to run in-line on the next quarter update. Please be advised that Skills England has the ability to change the title of routes and move standards into alternative routes based on feedback from contracting authorities, YPO reserve the right to follow the same process based on Skills England's direction. Any new routes will be added onto the framework on a quarterly basis with the subsequent standards aligned under them. On a quarterly basis YPO will add on new developed standards as they appear on the above website, the number of standards will continue to grow and will be updated in the documents. Providers will be able to bid for all live standards that have been listed from the beginning of the framework and all new standards that are added by Skills England throughout the duration of the framework.
