Student ID Cards – The Career Academy
Student ID Cards (Virtual Only)
The Career Academy issues virtual (digital) Student ID cards only.
We do not issue physical Student ID cards.
Eligibility – Who Can Receive a Student ID?
Student ID cards are only available to students based in New Zealand (and other approved regions, where applicable).
Students outside of these regions are not eligible to receive a Student ID card.
When Is a Student ID Issued?
Your virtual Student ID will be issued once all of the following have been completed:
-
Your first payment has been received
-
You have provided a valid government-issued photo ID
-
The cooling-off period has passed
Once these requirements are met, your Student ID will be processed and issued digitally.
Do I Need to Apply?
There is no separate application form for a Student ID. However, you must ensure:
-
Your first payment has been made
-
A valid government-issued photo ID has been submitted (if requested)
If any required documentation is missing, this may delay the issuing of your Student ID.

IDs are not generated immediately upon enrolment
