NIGP 92442: Instructors, Classes for the Public

NIGP 92442 Instructors, Classes For The Public is an Item code that covers state and local procurement of instructor-led education and training services delivered to the public, including dropout reengagement, driver safety certification, recreational programming, professional development for educators, outdoor skills workshops, and community outreach curricula. School districts dominate activity under this code, but cities, counties, state departments, and special-purpose agencies also solicit instruction services across academic enrichment, workforce development, and community recreation. Recent solicitations show districts purchasing everything from highly specialized interventions—such as Hillsborough County Public Schools' sole-source procurement of dropout reengagement services from Acceleration Academies—to roster-based instructor models where municipalities like the City of Norwalk establish pools of qualified instructors for recreation center programming. Collier County is using a concession-agreement structure for watersports instruction at a regional park, while the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department is contracting for Hunter Education Instructors to deliver twice-annual Becoming an Outdoors Woman workshops. Katy Independent School District's RFP for districtwide staff development encompasses 1,440 line items spanning face-to-face training, online delivery, coaching, and conferences across PreK-12 content areas, with a weighted evaluation framework emphasizing price (25%), vendor reputation (20%), and service quality (20%).
