Why take this course?
According to senate estimates, there’s an estimated 50,000 Change of Circumstance (CoC) requests in the NDIS system. So it’s little wonder why some participants are experiencing a long delay – unable to update their plans to reflect their changing needs or access new supports.
This 2 hour workshop will arm you with the knowledge and strategies to get your Change of Circumstance request addressed by the NDIA, sooner. We’ll highlight the hidden criteria, and give you practical tips to increase the likelihood of getting your request seen, prioritised and addressed. Complete with practical examples and real-time advice.
