HEP3 is designed to allow you to access, build, train, and test against our:
- multi-destination search tool (includes courses for UCAS Postgraduate, UCAS Undergraduate, and UCAS Conservatoires)
- collection tool (course management for UCAS Postgraduate, UCAS Undergraduate, and UCAS Conservatoires course data)
- application management service (the most up-to-date UCAS Postgraduate version)
You can use the environment for a range of admissions-related activity, including:
- training
- troubleshooting
- submitting dummy applications to simulate the applicant experience
- testing
- developing integration against our APIs (currently available to providers developing in-house, and software vendors only)
As this is our first iteration of our new test environment, functionality is limited – for example, generating test data. We’ll keep you informed as and when new features and functions are available.
