The Framework will support the delivery of programmes funded through the Adult Skills Fund (ASF), Free Courses for Jobs (FCFJ), Skills Bootcamps, and other future skills initiatives aligned with local and national workforce needs. The Framework is divided into Lots based on the different programme types. They are: • Lot 1 - Adult Skills Fund (ASF) and Free Courses for Jobs (FCFJ) • Lot 2 - Skills Bootcamps • Lot 3 - Future Skills Projects The Framework includes a single common set of sectors and geographical areas which applies across all 3 Lots.
