Course Application 

CHC30121 Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care

The Unique Student Identifier (USI) is a national government initiative for all students undertaking nationally recognised training from 1 January 2015.

If you are a new or continuing student undertaking nationally recognised training, you need a USI in order to receive your qualification or statement of attainment. If you do not have a USI, or do not provide your USI to us, you will not be able to receive your qualification or statement of attainment.

How do I apply for a USI?

Creating a USI will only take a few minutes and it is free. You can apply for your USI via the USI website at https://www.usi.gov.au/. You only need to create a USI once and it will stay with you for life.

In order to create your USI, you will need at least one form of ID such as an Australian Passport, Birth Certificate, Driver's Licence or Medicare Card. 

Find your USI

If you have undertaken nationally recognised training since 1 January 2015, you may already have a USI. You only ever need one USI. Just like a Tax File Number, it is unique to you and it is yours for life.

If you think you have a USI but can't remember it, please go to https://www.usi.gov.au/students/find-your-usi
