Manage your ARC grant: Progress reports

ARC Progress reports are required for most ARC grants and are submitted by Monitoring and Compliance on your behalf.

ARC grant recipients are also required to provide final reports on the completion of your project.

Deadlines for 2011 ARC Progress Reports


  • The internal closing date for submission to Monitoring and Compliance is Tuesday 17 January 2012.


  • The ARC submission date for all projects that received funding in 2011 is 31 January 2012.

How to submit your report

You must not submit the report directly to the ARC. All Progress Reports must be submitted to the ARC through the Administering Organisation responsible for the administration of project funding.

Please follow the instructions on page one of the relevant Progress Report template (below). Completed Progress Reports should be submitted along with any attachments via email to Monitoring and Compliance before Tuesday 17 January 2012.

The University of Sydney prefers all reports be submitted in RTF format. Where possible all information should be included within the report template (e.g. publications) however if you need to include any attachments please ensure these are clearly labelled. Reports will be reviewed by this office prior to submission to the ARC.
