The purpose of this contract is to select a qualified vendor to develop an on-line training program for District supervisors in 2021 and 2022 and amend with updates, if any, in 2023. This eLearning supervisory training will focus on encouraging the efficient supervision, management, and development of subordinate staff among all levels of our organizational hierarchy. The training will incorporate the District’s operations, policies and procedures. Designed to bolster the managerial acumen of District managers and supervisors, this virtual training series will also provide guidance to meet diverse challenges, and further strengthen our organization’s commitment to addressing the professional development needs of supervisory staff. The qualified vendor is required to create an on-line class that is compatible with the District’s learning management system, Cornerstone.
The estimated cost for this RFP is a total of $90,000.00 over a three-year agreement. The estimated cost for 2021 is $20,000.00, $50,000.00 in 2022, and $20,000.00 in 2023, with a total cost not to exceed $90,000.00.
