answer text: There are no immediate plans to withdraw or cease delivery of Interventions Services’ current Accredited Programmes offer. A new Accredited Programmes offer is under development. The Next Generation of Accredited Programmes (Next-Gen AcPs) change programme includes a period of rigorous testing, data and feedback gathering, evaluation, and scrutiny that will be used to inform the continued development of the new offer. This testing will ensure that the Next-Gen AcPs is fit for purpose and aligned with the organisation’s commitments to reducing reoffending and protecting the public. Current timelines for the Next Generation of Accredited Programmes (Next-Gen AcPs) do not see withdrawal of the current offer and rollout of the proposed Next-Gen AcPs until Summer 2025 at the earliest, and not before it has received independent expert scrutiny and accreditation. The current Accredited Programmes offer will continue to be delivered across prisons and probation services while development and testing of the Next-Gen AcPs proceeds.
