Australian Science Innovations provides troubleshooting guidance and support resources for teachers administering our Competitions and Exams.
Contact the Team
Please contact us for support:
The Australian Science Innovations (ASI) office will be open from 7 am to 6 pm AEST, Monday to Friday during the competition/exam periods.
Please contact us on 02 6125 6228, or email us on asi@asi.edu.au
To assist us with trouble shooting issues, if you are able to, please send a screenshot or photo of any errors you are experiencing.
Please note: In 2026, our Junior Science Olympiad and Australian Science Olympiad Exams will be delivered on the same trusted platform that we use for the Big Science Competition – an integrated platform we have successfully utilised for more than ten years. We now have an updated ASI Technology Profile, and soon will have the ASI Administration & Troubleshooting Guide, that covers all three.
