Funded Programs Application Information

Thank you for your expression of interest in the Smart and Skilled funded positions with ECTARC. In order to assess your eligibility for this program we require additional information from you.

STEP 1

Have you got your USI?

All students studying nationally recognised training in Australia from 1 January 2015, are required to have a Unique Student Identifier (USI). A USI is a code made up of 10 (ten) numbers and letters. Your USI will allow online access to your training records and results. We cannot enrol you in training until your USI is provided. ECTARC cannot issue you with a nationally recognised VET qualification or Statement of Attainment when you complete the course if you do not have a USI number. In addition, we are required to include your USI in the data we submit to NCVER throughout your enrolment.

• If you do not have a USI, please follow this link https://www.usi.gov.au/students/get-a-usi (takes about 3 minutes). Once you receive your USI please enter the details in the application form in the next step.

• Lost your USI? Search here – https://www.usi.gov.au/students/find-your-usi

IMPORTANT – You will also need to grant ECTARC permission to access your USI account.  Please log in and select Provide Your USI.  Then Add Organisation to the Set UP Access to your USI Account/Permissions. You will then need to enter ECTARC (Organisation Code 90331).
