With the program being camps based, scholarship athletes travel to the AIS in Canberra for training camps around four to five times a year, and live and train in their home states for the remainder of the year.

AIS athletes are provided with elite coaching, access to facilities and equipment, sports science and sports medicine, travel, accommodation and meals during training camps.

When in their home states, athletes train with their national training centre program under the guidance of the national training centre coaches and the AIS/National Coach. All athletes are encouraged and supported to pursue educational and career opportunities as well as to train and compete in their sport.
