    "description": "The university regulator (the Office for Students - OfS) has recently announced a new condition of registration for all universities in England, which focuses on harassment and sexual misconduct. The new condition of registration follows work that was started in 2016 and follows a statement of expectation that many universities, including LJMU, have been working to since 2020. The new condition of registration expects that all universities will have embedded good practice in place for the 1st August 2025.\r\nOne of the key aspects of this condition is the delivery and availability of training and awareness for staff and students on harassment and sexual misconduct, and LJMU will be required to roll this training out to all 2,700 staff and 27,000 students in the first instance. We expect to deliver the training in the first period (to the end of July 2025) to all relevant individuals and then from September 2025 to roll out to new students and staff as they start at the university with a 3-year refresher/renewal period for staff.\r\nThe tender is split into two parts and organisations are able to tender for either staff or student training provision or both. Please indicate on your submitted documentation whether it applies to a) staff; b) students; c) both staff and students.\r\nThe training is required to cover the following areas:\r\nLot One - Staff\t\t\r\n\uf0a7\tBackground to this condition of registration\r\n\uf0a7\tDetail on what is required of the university to comply with the condition.\r\n\uf0a7\tLegal background if applicable\r\n\uf0a7\tBystander training\r\n\uf0a7\tFirst disclosure guidance\r\n\uf0a7\tUnderstand Report and Support for themselves and students.\r\n\uf0a7\tUnderstand the services and support available within the institution.\r\n\uf0a7\tSignpost staff to support services.\r\nLot Two - Students\t\r\n\uf0a7\tBackground to the condition of registration\r\n\uf0a7\tLegal background if applicable\r\n\uf0a7\tRelevant elements of Consent training\r\n\uf0a7\tRelevant elements of Bystander training\r\n\uf0a7\tHow to report and seek support, both from the university and/or from external specialist agencies\r\n\r\nFull details in tender pack\r\n\r\nAdditional information: Please register on In-tend to access the documents - do not make direct contact with the - as we cannot guarantee a response",
