The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) requires professional services for the design of four activities of an Education sector project currently under development in Timor-Leste. The four activities include: (1) institution building or strengthening focused on improving quality of secondary school teacher and school leader education and training; (2) development and implementation of a new pre-service training program for secondary school teachers and school leaders; (3) development and implementation of an in-service professional development program for secondary school teachers and school leaders; and (4) support for the revision of the national secondary education general curriculum. The scope of services for each of these activities will include conducting preliminary contextual analyses of the education sector including institutional, financial and policy reviews, and then proposing a detailed design for each activity, including recommendations for implementation strategies, multi-year work plans, and detailed cost estimates to inform MCC’s final investment decision. These recommendations should be made in close collaboration with the key implementing entities of these investments, in particular the Ministry of Education, Ministry of Higher Education, and other donors working in the Education sector in Timor-Leste. This work will be informed by previously conducted surveys of the secondary education system, and therefore no additional survey work will be required as part of this contract. However, the bidder should anticipate carrying out informal research and information gathering in Timor Leste. Towards the end of the base period, the contractor will be expected to use findings from the design studies to develop terms of reference for procurements for the implementation of each of the tasks
