Why take this course?

DSC Hot Topics dive into the NDIS issues generating the most confusion, frustration and cost for providers. From Provider Travel to Participant Transport, Payment Integrity audits and beyond. It’s your chance to get straight answers from DSC experts to your specific questions.

Each session begins with a short, sharp update, followed by a live Q&A shaped by your questions. Questions submitted in advance will be prioritised, so we strongly encourage you to share yours. We can’t guarantee to get to every single question but we will certainly do our very best and use these to inform our future Hot Topics.


Hot Topics - Provider Travel
Wednesday 10 September

Provider travel is one of the most questioned and misunderstood parts of NDIS claiming and in this session, you get to ask what really matters to you. We’ll use your pre-submitted questions to unpack what’s claimable, what’s not, how to reduce admin overheads and stay compliant, especially under the pressure of rising costs and Payment Integrity audits.


Hot Topics - Participant Transport
Thursday 16 October

Few topics generate as much confusion as participant transport, it can be complex, inconsistent and often contested. In this session, we’ll work through your questions about the rules, the grey areas and the real-world gaps that providers are expected to fill. From funding pathways to compliance risks, this Q&A gives you space to clarify what’s fair, what’s claimable and how to support access without taking on unnecessary risk.


Hot Topics - Payment Integrity Audits
Monday 10  November

Audits are ramping up and they’re hitting providers hard. This session is a chance to ask the questions you don’t always get straight answers to. We’ll unpack what triggers audits, how to avoid the most common claim issues and what you need to know to protect your revenue and reduce risk.

Rob Woolley

Our very own Woolly Mammoth, pulls up last in the alphabetical rankings but always gets a place on the DSC podium for combining curiosity with smarts. He knows so much about the NDIS it is scary. Rob lives a personal commitment to sharing his knowledge with an endgame of people with disability in control. Combining lived experience of the early childhood intervention pathway with professional experience of the realities of provider life - he has consistently shown the inability to hold down a real job. His roles in the disability sector have covered direct support work, project management, business development, consulting, ILC-funded advocacy roles and owner-operator of a registered and then unregistered provider (but the thing he is best at is being a very present dad). If you want a consultant or trainer in your corner you will be looking high and low to do better than our Rob.
