Top three FAQs.

Posted Thu 17 March 2016

Q1. How do I set up new UCAS Teacher Training programmes for 2016?     

  • Sign in to web-link institution data.
  • Select the 2016 intake from the drop-down menu and click on ‘UCAS Teacher Training’ (formerly GTTR).
  • Navigate to the ‘Add Training Programmes’ link – this will present you with a new programme form.
  • Complete all the fields carefully, ensuring you have the correct accrediting provider selected, the correct training programme type, modular status and programme outcome.
  • The status of the programme must remain as ‘New’ until you have approval to recruit from the NCTL.


Q2. How do I update my vacancies for my UCAS Teacher Training programmes on web-link?    

  • Click on ‘Access institution data’ and sign in.
  • Click on ‘Course institution data’.
  • Select ‘UCAS Teacher Training’ (formerly GTTR) and the start year.
  • Select ‘Training programme details’ and ‘Vacancies’.
  • From the 'Vacancies' drop-down menu select the correct vacancy status: full-time vacancies, part-time vacancies, both full- and part-time vacancies or no vacancies.

Q3. How do I change the publish status on my UCAS Teacher Training programmes?  


If you are a lead school, you will not be able to set your programmes to published; UCAS will do this for you within three working days of receipt of the programme details. If you are a HEP or SCITT provider, you will be able to set the publish flag yourself, by signing in to web-link, navigating to the programme list, clicking the programme title then scrolling down the page to the ‘Publish’ menu next to the ‘Status’ menu. Then you will not be able to amend the publish flag until 40 days have passed after the receive applications date you selected for that programme.
