Restrict shortcode search to a custom post type

I am using the following shortcode found on this thread to display a search element on a page. Is it possible to restrict that shortcode to only search to a custom post type named Courses?
Hi George,
ok, if you want all instances where the get_search_form is output then you can use its filter hook:

But seeing as that filter i don't think is used in the Search Block, then i would probably write my own form. See Tom's reply here for an example:

Yeah, that was a good pointer, thanks!
