Why take this course?

There are a lot of changes underway in the NDIS right now (understatement of the century?) 

We’ve been hit from all directions: The Disability Royal Commission, the NDIS Review, and amendments to the NDIS Act. So in true DSC fashion, we’ve brought the key changes together in one place. 

This practical 2 hour workshop will guide business owners, managers and Support Coordinators through the current and future changes, as well as potential changes that are in the pipeline (like Support Coordination transforming into the ‘Navigator’ role). 

We’ll explore the threats and opportunities, with a complete-as-you-go workbook to assess your readiness. By the end, you’ll have a better idea of what you need to do right now, in the next year, and further down the track.

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.
