Mandatory details to verify USI

Unique Student Identifier (USI) serves as a lifelong education number for individuals. Not only does it provide a unique identifier, but it also maintains an online record of the vocational education and training (VET) a student has undertaken.

If a student already possesses a USI number, they can simply update it in the Unique Student Identifier field, and then proceed to update all USI-related information before selecting the save button. Upon saving the changes, the screen will refresh, presenting the student with a Verify button and a Use Manually Verified tick box option. This streamlined process ensures that educational records are accurate and easily accessible, benefiting both students and educational institutions alike.

Verify USI – When you select this button, the request gets sent to the https://www.usi.gov.au/providers/verify-student-usi site and you can check the status of the USI from the USI request screen in the system.

Use Manually Verified – You can select this tick box if you already have verified the USI from the https://www.usi.gov.au/providers/verify-student-usi site.

  3. At last, you need to select the country from the dropdown where the passport is issued.

We have introduced a new tick box to update the Overseas status for multiple enrolments. Now, when you navigate to the Compliance Dashboard and access the Enrolment is not flagged as Overseas listing screen, you’ll notice the Overseas Enrolment tick box next to each student’s number in the grid as well as above the grid.

To update this status in bulk, simply select the desired tick boxes corresponding to the students you want to include, then proceed to the Overseas enrolment tick box located above the grid. After making your selections, select the Update button. The system will promptly display a confirmation message at the top of the screen, asking for your confirmation to save the records. By selecting OK, the system will refresh the screen, and the chosen records will no longer appear in the grid. This signifies that the update has been successfully applied, and the “Overseas” status has been modified for the selected enrolments.
