Introducing the online system to manage certification and examination processes

The mines statutory positions portal (MSPP) is a learning management system that is configured with learning pathways to manage statutory certification processes and examination enrolments applicable to statutory positions on mining operations. 

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.

Candidates wishing to enrol, read the Enrolling for a statutory learning pathway guide. 

Registering for a portal account

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 unique student identifier (USI). 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.
