Timeline for Round 1 and Round 2 ANU Carers' Career Development Assistance Fund (CCDAF) in 2018

29 Jan 2018

The University recognises that many staff have caring responsibilities that may limit their access to opportunities for the development of their careers.

To support access to career development opportunities for staff with caring responsibilities, the University provides funding through the Carers’ Career Development Assistance Fund (CCDAF).

The CCDAF enables staff with caring responsibilities to apply for grants of up to $1,000 to participate in significant international or national conferences, workshops or symposia that contribute to their careers.

These CCDAF grants cover reasonable costs relating to care of dependants where existing care arrangements are not available.

To ensure equitable access to CCDAF funding, the University has implemented a CCDAF Application Rounds process which will be conducted across two rounds each year in 2018 and future years.

For your early awareness, the table below outlines the timeline for Round 1 and Round 2 CCDAF Applications in 2018.
