Crown Commercial Chooses Cordie

We are delighted to announce the UK Government’s Crown Commercial Service (CCS) has recently selected Cordie to deliver CIPS professional qualification studies for its procurement staff.

CCS plays a critical role helping the UK public sector save money when buying common goods and services; it is the biggest public procurement organisation in the UK. The collective purchasing power of CCS’s customers, together with its procurement knowledge, means that CCS is able to get the best commercial deals in the interests of taxpayers. However, to achieve this, having access to the best procurement education and professional qualifications is essential.

Cordie has been selected for our established reputation in delivering procurement-related training and education services throughout government. We have worked with CCS and other members of the Cabinet Office and central government departments for many years to deliver world class commercial training.

As a CIPS centre of excellence with one of the highest exam pass-rates in the world and nearly 10% of the UK market for the CIPS Level 4 Diploma studies, Cordie is a natural partner for large public sector organisations like CCS and others. We work openly with both public and private sector clients to raise procurement capabilities throughout the profession.

Get in touch today if you would like to know more about how we can help you with your CIPS qualifications studies and/or run a corporate study programme for your organisation.

NEWS UPDATE…

We are delighted to announce a 100% pass-rate for our CCS learners from the November 2021 exam series. While we do not usually share the exam successes of our clients, with over 50 exam entries for this exam series and an average exam mark in excess of 80%, we recognise these results as a significant achievement for the learners, their employer and ourselves as the learning provider.

We look forward to further successes during 2022 and beyond!
