UNIQUE STUDENT IDENTIFIER 

A Unique Student Identifier (USI) number is a unique number allocated to students studying nationally recognised (VET) Vocational Educational Training in Australia.  Australian Government introduced the USI initiative, allowing students to access their training records and results from one location.  

From January 2015, USI numbers are required for anyone completing nationally recognised training. Students registering for nationally recognised training are required to provide their USI number to the Registered Training Organisation so the RTO can report the student's training information to the National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER). 

Students can obtain a USI number instantly via an online application-  www.usi.gov.au
