USI verification

Every USI checked against the registry, automatically.

RTO Grow checks each student's USI against the USI Registry when their enrolment form comes in, and re-checks unverified USIs overnight. Your office can verify, find or create a USI from the student's record.

Automatic checks

Checked automatically, never holding up the form.

With "Verify USIs automatically" on, RTO Grow checks each new student's USI the moment their enrolment form arrives. The form is never held up while it checks. Any USI that doesn't verify is re-checked overnight, and anything that still needs a person shows under "USIs needing review".

Plain English

Clear answers when something's wrong.

When the registry says no, you get the reason in plain words. So you know exactly what to ask the student. Nothing on the student's file changes without you.

  • The USI has been deactivated
  • It may be mistyped
  • The name or date of birth doesn't match
USI card

Verify, find or create from the record.

Every student record has a USI card showing the USI and its status: registry verified, manual override, on file but unverified, exempt, or no USI yet. Check a USI in one click, look up an existing one, or create a new one from the student's identity documents.

Exceptions

Overrides and exemptions, with a reason.

If the registry rejects a USI you've sighted evidence for, apply a manual override with a written reason. For students who don't need a USI, record an exemption. Offshore course offerings stamp INTOFF automatically.

What happens next

Ready to report, ready to certify.

The moment a USI is verified, the student's enrolment is marked ready to report, so they flow straight into your AVETMISS reporting. And if a certificate was waiting on that USI, it issues automatically and the student is emailed.

Quick answers.

Does RTO Grow check USIs automatically?

Yes. Every USI is checked when the enrolment form arrives and re-checked overnight until it's verified.

What do we need to set up?

Enter your USI Organisation Code, click "Save and generate SSID" and "Test connection". The on-screen guide covers the one request you make in the USI Organisation Portal.

Can RTO Grow create a USI for a student?

Yes. "Create USI" takes a Medicare card, Australian passport or driver's licence, and the new USI is saved to the student's record as verified.

What if the registry rejects a USI we know is right?

Apply a manual override with a written reason, and the record shows it as a manual override.

What about students who don't need a USI?

Record an INTOFF or INDIV exemption with a reason. Offshore offerings stamp INTOFF automatically.

Can we verify a whole group at once?

Yes. On the NCVER reporting page, "Verify all" checks every student with a USI on file that hasn't been checked yet.

Who can see a student's USI?

Your office team. Students see their own USI and whether it's verified on their profile.
