Daren Jay, IMS–
Great Course! If you’re thinking about applying for a listing on the G-Cloud this course is the place to start before you do anything else! The course provides an excellent overview of the public sector procurement landscape and the presentations are progressively structured with a clear message behind each. I found the most useful factor was that as a supplier, the course allowed me to see the G-Cloud from the ‘eyes’ of the public sector buyer and I’m already implementing on some of the key learning. Happy to recommend.
Rob Oehlers–
Very useful course for suppliers to understand GCloud process from the buyers perspective. Made us think hard about how we can help buyers use the search criteria more effectively.
Sheetal Thaker, Agile World Associates–
I can now converse confidently about G-Cloud, CCS, The Digital Market Place, Central and Local Government procurement processes.
Through understanding the buying process, I feel better equipped to support buyers throughout the procurement process and beyond.
Thank You Advice Cloud!
