Student Travel Funding

  • All persons traveling from Interstate and New Zealand must be a student from an AINSE Member Organisation
  • Airfares are based on the student's university main campus location.
  • Students will be responsible for purchasing their airline tickets.
  • Accommodation and meals will only be paid for the student during the workshop/conference/event dates.
  • Students traveling from Western Australia, Northern Territory and New Zealand will be required to book flights as close to the start and finish times of the event as possible to prevent additional accommodation.  If this cannot be achieved, you must get written approval from ANSTO and show evidence of no available flights before ANSTO will cover additional accommodation.
  • You will be required to purchase tickets within your cap range.  Any additional cost is the responsibility of the student. 
  • ANSTO will reimburse economy flights with no flexible fares only.
  • Reimbursements will be made to the student’s university (not the induvial) after the workshop, all paperwork is received, and the criteria have been met.
  • If changes are made to the original purchase ticket, which increases the cost, ANSTO will only reimburse up to the cap amount.
  • If security clearance is required to attend the workshop/conference/event - In that case, it is strongly recommended that airline tickets are not purchased until you have received notice that your ANSTO security clearance has been completed  & approved.  ANSTO will not reimburse students if a ticket is purchased before this notice and your clearance is not granted.
  • A condition of reimbursement is that the student is expected to attend all workshop/conference/event sessions.
  • A tax invoice from the university quoting (event name) as the reference with backup documentation from the airline/travel agent must be supplied before reimbursement can be paid.
  • Students are responsible for arranging and paying for their ground transport.
  • Students will be requested to promote the workshop/conference/event on social media platforms before and during the event.
  • Students must complete a survey after the workshop/conference/event.
