Why this scraper?

🎯 Built for the United Kingdom

A dedicated British course scraper, not a global tool with a country dropdown. Categories, price formats and currency (GBP) are tuned for findcourses.co.uk.

💶 Structured pricing

Course price as a clean number in GBP, including discounts and instalment prices where offered. Courses without a published price return null, never a guess.

🏫 Provider details

Training provider name and profile link for every course, ready for provider-level analysis.

⭐ Review signals

Average rating and review count for every course that has them, for popularity and quality analysis.

Known limitations

• Price, duration and start dates are only returned when the provider publishes them — expect null on a share of records.
• Review data varies per course; new or niche courses often have no ratings yet.
• Very large result sets are bounded by the source's own paging limits.
• Providers can withdraw courses at any time, so a small share of URLs may expire shortly after scraping.

Technical details

• Source: findcourses.co.uk — courses for the United Kingdom
