The centre has published a framework tender, worth £2m to £8m over four years, for a single operator to provide education, training and development services, including some electronic learning.

The contract will include replacing the Primis+ healthcare quality data service currently provided by University of Nottingham. This aims to improve data quality in primary care clinical and recording systems, and covers the management of patient records, data extraction and analysis, and use of NHS Connecting for Health's Summary Care Records and GP2GP systems.

The Primis+ service is currently provided to around 436 facilitators at 152 primary care trusts and local health informatics services around England. They train local GPs and practice staff, who will not be covered by the new service.

It will include the provision of a learning management system, including a contact management system, workflow management, automatic notifications, training course delivery and scheduling, according to the notice, published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 11 January 2010.
