Appointment of a service provider to deliver a basic counselling course for four officials in the Department of Basic Education. Suited to accredited training providers offering structured counselling skills programmes. Submit quotations by 28 October 2026.
The Department of Basic Education has issued Request for Quotation (RFQ) 26487 to appoint a service provider to deliver a basic counselling course for four officials within the Department. The requirement is for a structured training intervention that equips participants with foundational counselling knowledge, communication techniques, and practical skills that can be applied in their roles within the public service. The tender was published on 22 October 2026 and closes on 28 October 2026.
Because the supporting document (RFQ26487.pdf) could not be extracted, the detailed specifications, including course duration, delivery mode (in-person or blended), assessment and certification requirements, pricing schedule, and mandatory compliance criteria, should be confirmed directly from the full RFQ document on the eTenders portal. Prospective bidders are advised to review the document carefully before preparing their submissions, paying particular attention to tax clearance, B-BBEE certification, CSD (Central Supplier Database) registration, and any minimum qualification or accreditation requirements for trainers and training providers.
For successful bidders, this opportunity offers a small but well-defined contract with a clear deliverable and a short timeline. It is a useful entry point for training providers seeking to build a track record with national government departments. Interested businesses should verify their eligibility, ensure their pricing is competitive and fully compliant with the RFQ requirements, and submit complete quotations before the closing date.
Accredited training providers, counselling and psychology training organisations, and skills development companies with experience delivering counselling or people-development courses to government or corporate clients. Registered suppliers on the Central Supplier Database with valid tax clearance and B-BBEE credentials are best placed to apply. Individual consultants with qualifications in counselling and facilitation may also be suitable if they can meet the RFQ's compliance requirements.
