Homestay Host Certification

Becoming a registered and approved host with Australian Homestay Network involves three steps:

1. Host Application

Complete the application form and submit it. A welcome email will be sent to you. Click the activation link to verify your email address and ensure you have filled in all the sections of your host profile.

You will also be required to pass AHN Host Training.

2. Site Visit at Your Home

Our team will contact you to schedule an interview. An AHN staff member will visit your home to meet you and inspect the student room/s and home environment. You will have the opportunity to ask any questions, discuss your expectations, learn about the placement process and get to know our staff.

3. Background Checks

Our standards require that all host families have the appropriate personal clearances before any placements can be received.

Hosts and residents are required to obtain the relevant Working with Children Check (WWCC) and/or Police Check for their State/Territory and ensure these remain valid. We cannot work with hosts prior to receiving this information, nor can we place students with existing hosts if we are notified of a denied or revoked WWCC. Hosts must advise AHN of any changes in compliance.

N.B. In some areas you may be required to complete your background check/s prior to scheduling your home visit.

Congratulations!

Upon successful completion of all the above steps you will become a registered and approved Australian Homestay Network host. You will be given the opportunity to host a student as soon as someone matching your criteria becomes available.
