What is a national unique student identifier and what do I have to do about it?
A national unique VET student identifier is a unique national VET student number for all nationally recognised training. This is an important initiative aimed at better capturing information on student pathways, student entitlements, and qualifications completed. The system and details for a national unique student identifier are currently being developed. You will not be required to capture this information until a national system is in place. However, some jurisdictions have or are implementing a unique VET student number at the state level. If you are required to submit data as part of your funding arrangement this will be part their reporting requirements. You will need to contact the appropriate jurisdiction which will advise on collection requirements.
