Find as of December 2019

Posted on: 6 December 2019

A complete snapshot of Find postgraduate teacher training (Find) as it looked in December 2019.

Changes since Find’s launch in 2018 include:

A proper GOV.UK start page
A way of finding courses with a SEND specialism
A small map on search results showing where a user searched
A map on course pages showing training locations
Focus on training location names and address rather than codes (they are not needed for UCAS Apply)
Better course titles in search results and on course pages
Updated financial incentives
A filter for finding courses without vacancies (useful towards the end of a cycle)
Removal of the skills test from course pages and the start page
No more minimal course details pages, all courses have full information

Iteration on Find has been minimal in the last year because the team has needed to focus on an API for UCAS, building Publish teacher training courses (Publish), and adding the features needed as the authoritative source of courses (for example ‘Add new course’).
