Australia Awards Ongoing Survey 2026

ACER

The Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER) and Wallis Social Research are conducting the Australia Awards Ongoing Survey for 2026. This research is being conducted by the Australia Awards Global Support Mechanism (AAGSM) Global Research Unit (GRU) on behalf of the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT). GRU is managed by ACER, an independent, not-for-profit research organisation. The survey responses will be collected by Wallis.

The purpose of this project is to collect information from two groups of Australia Award scholars: students who are currently studying in Australia, and Australia Award Pacific Scholarship students who are currently studying in their study country.

The data collected in the Australia Awards Ongoing Survey will be used to improve the experience of Australia Award scholars.

When is the research being conducted?

The survey will be conducted between the 17th of September to the 16th of October 2026.

How long will the survey take?

The survey will take around 20 minutes to complete.
