Unique Student Identifier (USI)

From 1 January 2015 when you attend a first aid course (nationally recognised training) you will need to have a USI.

A USI will give you access to your online USI account which will contain all your nationally recognised training records and results from 1 January 2015 onwards.

This is a requirement of the Australian Government Department of Industry.

First Aid Management & Training Centre is a Registered Training Organisation and must comply with Government Legislation to maintain our registration. As of the 1 January 2015 we will be unable to issue you a Statement of Attainment for your course until you supply us with your USI.

How to get your USI

It is free and easy for you to create your own USI online.

Step 1:

Have at least one and preferably two forms of ID ready from the list below

  • Driver’s Licence
  • Medicare Card
  • Australian Passport
  • Visa (with Non-Australian Passport)
  • Birth Certificate (Australian)
  • Certificate Of Registration By Descent
  • Citizenship Certificate
  • Immi Card

IMPORTANT: To make sure all of your training records are kept together, the USI will be linked to your name as it appears on the form of ID you use to create the USI. The personal details entered when you create a USI must match exactly with those on your form of ID.

Step 2:

Have your personal contact details ready (e.g. email address, or mobile number, or address)

Step 3:

Visit the USI website at: usi.gov.au

Step 4:

Select the 'Create a USI' link and follow the steps

Step 5:

Agree to the Terms and Conditions

Step 6:

Follow the instructions to create a USI - it should only take a few minutes. Upon completion, the USI will be displayed on the screen. It will also be sent to your preferred method of contact.

Step 7:

You should then write down the USI and keep it somewhere handy and safe, and advise FAMTC of your USI so that it can be recorded on your enrolment form.

If you have difficulty in obtaining your USI, please call us and we can assist you in creating your USI.
