Access to data is limited to ATWD Partners and Other Education Organisations listed in the application form.

If you would like to apply to be added to the list of Other Education Organisations, you can do this in section 1.2 of the application form.

Applicants should familiarise themselves with the ATWD Data Access and Reporting Protocols prior to making an application.

Assessment and access

Applications will be assessed prior to consideration by the AATWD Oversight Board. Final approval rests with the ATWD Oversight Board.

Access to de-identified data for approved applications will be provided by the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW), which is the Commonwealth Integrating Authority for the ATWD. Data analysis can only be performed in AIHW’s Secure Environment for Analysing Data. All analysis outputs must maintain privacy and will be vetted by the AIHW.

Information regarding onboarding procedures for accessing the AIHW’s secure environment and costs will be provided to applicants by the AIHW following application approval.
