From 1st January 2015, it is now a Legal Requirement that all students are required to have a USI (Unique Student Identifier) number for all studies.
Applying for a USI is free and will remain with you for life.
Benefits to you as a student:
Please note that if you do not supply your Training Organisation (Outdoor Training College) with your USI number, the training organisation cannot legally issue you with your Statement of Attainment or Qualification Certificate.
By supplying your USI, you authorise this Registered Training Organisation to access the government USI site to verify the Unique Student Identifier code and to access information about courses I have already undertaken.
Please make sure you have one form of ID from the list below ready.
Examples of acceptable forms of ID:
