organization identifier number
Explanation:
Logically, I shgould say it means identifikacni znacka organizace (I have missed out diacritics), which means literally "identifying sign of organization". Personally I would render this as "organization identifier (or identification) number" - but the choice is yours.

RTO


Explanation:
RTO stands for "Registered Training Organisation"
This of course is the term used in Australia.
If you gave us the target country for your translation we would have found the correct abbreviation for you.
See the page below, scroll to the bottom for the RTO of my institute :0-)
