What is a USI?
- A Unique Student Identifier (USI) is a reference number made up of ten numbers and letters that gives you access to your online training records and results.
- You need a USI to enrol in any Nationally Recognised training in Australia, including all courses delivered by Catch Training.
- Without a valid USI, we are unable to issue you with a Nationally Recognised qualification or Statement of Attainment.
Why do I need a USI?
- Your USI allows you to access and download your training records and results, known as a USI transcript, from any training organisation you have studied with.
- It is a requirement of the Australian Government for anyone undertaking nationally recognised training.
How do I get a USI?
- You can create your own USI for free in minutes online through the official USI Registry website.
- You will need one of the following forms of ID to verify your identity: Driver's licence, Medicare card, Australian passport, Visa (with non-Australian passport), Birth certificate (Australian), Citizenship certificate, or Immicard.
- Once created, your USI stays with you for life and can be used for all future study.
Already have a USI?
- If you have previously completed nationally recognised training in Australia, you may already have a USI. You can look up an existing USI using the USI Registry's forgotten USI tool.
- Please provide your USI on your Catch Training enrolment form so we can issue your certificate correctly.
