Why take this course?
New(ish) to the sector and want to start your own NDIS business? Great. But where do you even begin in the complicated world of the NDIS?
This informative three hour workshop will highlight what you need to know to get started – from preparing for an audit to taking on your first participants.
Delivered by trainers with experience in starting and delivering an NDIS business – and in Kate’s case, pivoting to provide different services within the business. You’ll leave with a list of clear next steps and valuable resources – as well as feeling confident, motivated and better informed to know if an NDIS business is right for you.
What this course is – a breakdown of the end-to-end process specific to NDIS providers, taking you from 0 to registered provider. We’ll point you in the right direction, show you what you need to know, and give you invaluable resources for the journey ahead (like qualifications and NDIS commission documents).
What this course isn’t – a generic ‘start your own business’ course (there’s enough of those in the world). It’s not legal advice, financial advice, or a comprehensive business plan – this is business information specific to the NDIS.
