You can create instans name in the method and format the date and time there as you need.

@NamePattern("#getCaption|course,startDate,finishDate")
...
...
public String getCaption(){
    SimpleDateFormat simpleDateFormat12H = new SimpleDateFormat("hh:mm", Locale.UK);
    String finishDateFormated= simpleDateFormat12H(finishDate);
    String startDateFormated= simpleDateFormat12H(startDate);
    
    return String.format("%s - %s to %s", cource, startDateFormated, finishDateFormated);
}

And you can use the method of setOptionCaptionProvider from lookupField
to convert the display of the option list.

P.S.
I didn’t check the code at the IDE. It’s just an illustration of the way.
