Yes! If you don’t already have one, you will also need to create a Unique Student Identifier (USI).
The USI is a unique number allocated to everyone who undertakes accredited vocational education and training in Australia. This means that if you are planning to study with TasTAFE you must provide your USI or you won’t be able to complete your application.
To create or recover a lost USI, visit the Unique Student Identifier website and follow the instructions.
