USI Scheme Policy
The Unique Student Identifier Scheme Policy
A USI is an individual education number issued by the government. The Australian government introduced the USI to the Higher Education sector to manage students’ records from various education providers, nationally.
You will need a USI in order to obtain your qualification. If you have undertaken any vocational education or training (even a First Aid course) since 2015 you may already have a USI.
If you have a genuine personal objection to being assigned a USI, you can apply for an exemption. Successful exemption will mean that you will not be eligible for Commonwealth Support or Assistance. If you decide to apply for an exemption, you will need to let the StrataGreen RTO Manager know when registering for the course. This can be done in the notes when booking a course or by emailing gavin.fawkes@stratagreen.com.au before the course start date.
