OSA02 – Account access for contractors and visiting academics
The OSA02 process has now moved to a digital platform.
The OSA02 online portal is used to request system access for contractors and visiting academics, including UNSW email, the UniWide wireless service, eLearning, shared folders and printers.
Access the portal here: Contractor Onboarding App - Power Apps
Only current UNSW staff with a valid zID can submit a request. Contractors and visiting academics do not complete the form themselves.
