Contact hours for the Research Help Centre
Monitoring of call volume to the Research Help Centre has shown that there has been low uptake of support service on Sundays and after 7pm AEDST.
From Sunday 6 March, the Research Help Centre will not operate on Sundays.
From Monday 7 March, the Research Help Centre will not operate after 7pm AEDST.
We will continue to provide support from 8am to 7pm AEDST from Monday to Friday, and 10am to 4pm on Saturdays.
As we near closing dates for rounds, we will monitor the demand for Research Help Centre assistance, and will ensure that we provide the required level of service.
