Full Description

Show more
The Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development (DFATD) wishes to offer second-language training to post-secondary recruitment process candidates to help them achieve the CCC language profile. The objective of this process is to hire up to four offerors to provide full-time or part-time English and/or French language training services, depending on the candidates’ needs. The programs will be the Canada School of Public Service (CSPS) Communicative English at Work Program (CEWP) A, B and C for Francophones and the Programme de français langue seconde (PFL2) A, B and C for Anglophones. In both cases, the short program will be used unless otherwise specified. Offerors are invited to enhance these programs by adding one or more internal programs. To carry out the tasks outlined in Section 5.0 Scope of Work, each Offeror must propose six (6) teachers for French second language training and one (1) teacher for English second language training and at least one (1) pedagogical adviser to the Department. Depending on the requirements identified by DFATD when the call-up is issued, the Offeror will provide full time or part-time English and/or French language training, either in class or virtually, to groups ranging in size from one to six students. Depending on their first official language, candidates will have received an assessment of their language training needs based on the CSPS CEWP A, B and C or PFL2 A, B and C. Candidates who need less training will be added at later dates. All candidates must achieve level CCC in their second language in accordance with the standards of the Public Service Commission of Canada (PSC). Most of the work to be performed is already defined. However, the nature and timing of the training groups will not be known until the service is required, during the period identified in the Standing Offer (SO). Training could start with just one person per class. Should this be the case, other students may be added at a later date to complete one or more groups. There are security requirements associated with the requirement of the Standing Offer. For additional information, see Part 6 - Security, Financial and Insurance Requirements, and Part 7 - Standing Offer and Resulting Contract Clauses.
