## What Maven is

Maven is a directory of cohort-based courses. It helps people browse courses across different subjects, with listings organised around current trends, best sellers, upcoming start dates and new additions.

Users can narrow the catalogue by category. Each course listing provides practical details including its duration, start date and instructor names, allowing users to compare available options before choosing a course.
