• English Requirements

  English and Basic Skills Requirements

  All our short courses are designed to be accessible and practical. Participants are required to have:

  Basic English proficiency – enough to read, understand, and follow written instructions.

  Basic numeracy – the ability to perform simple calculations relevant to the course activities.

  Minimal digital skills – as all our courses are paper-based and do not involve online training.

  No advanced English, math, or computer skills are needed, ensuring our courses are suitable for beginners and those returning to learning.

• USI Requirements

  USI (Unique Student Identifier) Requirements

  All participants enrolling in our short courses are required to have a USI. The USI is a national identifier that allows your training records to be securely stored and accessed online.

  If you already have a USI, please provide it during enrollment.

  If you do not have a USI, you will need to create one before starting the course. Creating a USI is free and can be done online using your personal details, such as your name, date of birth, and email.

  The USI ensures that your course completion is officially recorded and accessible for future reference.
