AOT founder Paul Lange said the giveaway could cost AOT well over $10,000, but the expense would be justified if it helped families rebuild their lives.

"To help students affected by the recent natural disasters get their lives back to normal, we have decided to offer all our students who have lost their computers a free laptop," said.

"We recognise that re-establishing routines after the recent devastating events will help our students rebuild their lives.

"All of AOT's course records are stored in databanks, so none of our student records have been lost.

All of our students will be able to continue their studies where they left off."

Mr Lange said he realised that the computers would be used for purposes other than studying AOT's extensive range of professional online training courses.

"We expect that students and their families will appreciate the ability to reconnect with friends and family around the world, whether they are in temporary accommodation in Victoria, or isolated by floodwaters."

All students registered with AOT in bushfire and flood-affected areas will be eligible for the replacement free laptop.

AOT students affected by the natural disasters who do not yet wish to return to study can apply to have an extension of their study for up to three months.
