Find the right course for you on Findcourses.co.uk

Follow our step-by-step guide to find the most suitable course for your development requirements and goals.

Finding the right training programme or course is not always straightforward. Knowing where to begin looking, and the resources available to you when considering a course will make the process a little easier for you.

Step 1. - Think about what your development needs are

Think about your needs, aims, and goals. What objectives do you have when considering investing in training? Can you progress in your career, or reach your personal goals with the qualifications, skills and competences you currently have? In which areas do you need to strengthen your skills or competences? Which qualifications, certificates or diplomas would enable you to step up a level in your career, or progress to your desired area of expertise?

If you are a HR Manager, or Learning & Development Manager responsible for planning training for employees in your organisation, think about which key competencies enable your company to be effective, considering the values of your organisation and your competitive edge that allows you to be successful. In which areas do your employees need to develop their skills for growth and staff retainment? Which areas can be developed further to compliment existing skills and previous training experiences?

Step 2. - Search, find and compare training and courses

Our main goal at Findcourses.co.uk, is to help users find the right training for their professional development. We have developed our search engine to make it easy for you to find available training courses. Findcourses.co.uk is the United Kingdom's largest training and courses search engine for business professionals, with more than 5,000 courses listed with hundreds of training providers - a list that grows daily.

To ensure you find the most suitable course or training for your professional or personal development we have developed a search, find and compare system which allows you to directly compare courses with each other - to see which suits you best.

Start your search by choosing the most relevant category of training, method of training (public courses with dates, company-specific courses delivered in-house, or distance / online learning courses), and then the most suitable location for you. You can also enter your own search phrases in our free-text search box:

Step 3. - Request more information

Once you have found a course, or courses that interest you, the next step to ensuring you choose the right course for your needs is to contact the training provider and 'Request Information'. Using our Information Request system, you are able to contact the training providers, in a cost and obligation free manner. After filling in our online form with your details and requirements to find out specific things to your training goals, such as qualification or awards and dates which the training is run on. The training providers will respond to your request and help you to gather the information you need to make the right choice.

In this way, you can compare courses and consider training programmes in private, ensuring you fully understand what you will gain from the training. In some cases, it is necessary to get the confirmation and go-ahead from your supervisor, or manager - and so Requesting information in this way satisfies your planning and goal assessment of the training.

Step 4. - Read course reviews

An increasingly popular method of choosing training and courses is to read reviews of courses. Course reviews, completed by delegates who have taken the training course already, help users get an insight into what the training experience will be like, and what to expect from the training institute, or trainer.

Step 5. - Be realistic, motivated, and practice the skills you gain

Once you have signed up for a course, make sure the training organiser understands what you would like to achieve from the training, and expect to take away from the course. This makes it easier for the training organiser to meet your expectations, and will help you to benefit from the training and use the skills gained for your professional or personal development.

You learn more when you are motivated about gaining new skills, and want to take in new information. To help maintain your motivation, it is important that the course is intrinsically motivating; that your nearest manager see's the importance of the course, and that the people going on the course feel that the course will develop them in the right direction.

Step 6. - Continuous development

To ensure you retain the information or skills that you develop on a training course, it is important that you build on the skills you gain.  Keep course notes, and read through them from time to time, to ensure you do not lose any of the knowledge you gain.  When you have completed a training course write-up a plan for how you will apply your new skills within your workplace.
