In order for you to register for an account on the portal, certain information must be provided about your identity. The personal information you provide will be used to verify your identity and confirm your eligibility to sit an exam.

Registration relies on the applicant’s USI – unique student identifier. If you have previously enrolled for a qualification with a registered training organisation, you will have a USI. It should appear on any training records they have issued.

If you don’t have a USI then you will need to create one before proceeding.

Other documentation may also be required for some learning pathways. Without this information, applications cannot be processed.

Once you have registered, you can enrol in your chosen statutory learning pathway and book an exam session. 

Statutory learning pathways

The learning pathways allow users to:

• access the application process to obtain a statutory certificate, including any examinations, required to be eligible for a certificated statutory position
• enrol for an examination required for eligibility for a non-certificated statutory position
• enrol for an examination required to transition a certificate of competency so it meets certification requirements under the Work Health and Safety Mines Regulations.

Enrolling for a statutory learning pathway

Candidates who have a disability, illness and/or medical condition affecting their capacity to apply for or sit a statutory examination may request a reasonable adjustment. Confidentiality will be maintained.

To apply, you must provide a completed medical report from an independent health professional, for example a general practitioner (GP), medical specialist or psychologist registered with the Psychology Board of Australia.

If you require a reasonable adjustment, you should not book an examination session until the reasonable adjustment has been confirmed.

Application to apply for a reasonable adjustment for a statutory examination
