• certificates, digital badges, awards;
• peer-to-peer praise and kudos;
• badging/labelling of 'super' users or contributors with, e.g. high-level technical skills, active participation in the online communities, willing to offer local or expert knowledge for the benefit of others.
b) Bespoke training/learning content creation and lifecycle management
We would like to meet suppliers that can provide workshop facilitators and trainers, expert event speakers, content writers, editors, and subject matter experts; specialist resources needed to create training and CPD content that helps improve the confidence, knowledge and skills of practitioners across the UK who have money conversations - non-regulated money guidance - with their customers and service users, including those who are vulnerable and most in need.
The training and CPD suite will include content for leaders and managers in organisations that deliver money guidance as part of their service. It includes the creation of original content as well as curating content, and content review, updating and lifecycle management.
