17 May 2024

How to enrol in a Better Start Literacy Approach course as a Facilitator or Teacher at UC. 

HOW TO APPLY
1

Prepare your identity documents & find your NSN

Ask your Principal or a local JP to sign and stamp a copy of the photo page of your passport or your birth certificate and confirm in writing that they have sighted the original. 

Tip: if you have had a change of name (for example through marriage), you will also need this done for a document that shows both your original name and your current name (eg a marriage certificate).  More information here. 

If you do not know your National Student Number (NSN), you can find your number on the NZQA website using the 'Ask Awhina' bot. 

 

2

Log in to UC Online

Create a UC Online account using your school email address.  If you already have a UC Online account, you can log in using your existing login details.

Tip: existing UC login credentials will not work with UC Online. 

Call 03 369 0600 if you have any problems logging in.
