AIIO
The Australian Invitational Informatics Olympiad (AIIO) held annually in February since 2006 is open only to the students selected to attend the previous year's December School of Excellence. Results of the AIIO contribute to the selection of approximately 12 students to attend the April IOI Team Selection School, and to a lesser extent, the selection of the four members of the team itself. The AIIO is more difficult than the AIO and requires knowledge of basic algorithms learned in the December school.
The French-Australian Regional Informatics Olympiad (FARIO) is a joint-managed competition organised by both the AIOC and France-IOI. The competition began in 2004 and is open to any interested students in France and Australia. Results from the FARIO are also used along with the AIIO to select eight students for the April IOI Team Selection School and IOI team selection.
