Description:

Training Centres foster close partnerships between university-based researchers and industry, through creating and delivering innovative Higher Degree by Research (HDR) and postdoctoral training. Training Centres are to develop researchers with capability in end user research that is vital to Australia's future. In delivering this training, the Training Centre focuses its researchers on developing solutions relevant to the Industrial Transformation Priorities. 

The Training Centres scheme objectives are to: 

• support HDR candidates and postdoctoral researchers to undertake industrial training;

• support research collaboration between universities and organisations outside the Australian higher education sector; and

• strengthen the capabilities of industry and research end-users in identified Industrial Transformation Priority areas.

The intended outcomes of the Training Centres scheme are:

• growth, productivity and competitiveness within Industrial Transformation Priorities; and

• economic, commercial and social transformation.

Eligibility:

An application may only be submitted through the Research Office of an Eligible    Organisation listed in the Grant Guidelines. The application must:

• directly address one or more of the current Industrial Transformation Priorities;

• nominate at least one Australian Partner Organisation.

Applications must include the following:

• Training Centre Director, who is an eligible Chief Investigator from the Administering Organisation;

• at least one other Chief Investigator from the Administering Organisation;

• at least one Chief Investigator from each Other Eligible Organisation;

• at least one Partner Investigator from each Partner Organisation;

• at least 10 ICHDRs; and

• at least one ICPD.

Applications must include a commitment of combined cash and in-kind contributions to the Training Centre that, along with the ARC contribution, are sufficient to support all the research projects described in the application and particularly that of the ICHDRs and ICPDs in the Training Centre.

Grant Activity Timeframe:

An application may be applied for and awarded funding for a minimum of four to a maximum of five consecutive years.

Estimated Grant Value (AUD):

From $2,100,000.00 to $5,000,000.00

Instructions for Application Submission:

The application must be submitted as a mature research plan presenting the proposed project ready for implementation and must contain all the information necessary for its assessment without the need for further written or oral explanation, or reference to additional documentation, unless requested by the Australian Research Council (ARC).

Applicants should note the eligibility criteria for access to other funding schemes, as expressed in the Grant Guidelines for those schemes.  The ARC reserves the right to change these criteria in future funding rounds.
