A practical full day workshop guiding you through Exploration and Design – AKA the latest Home and Living change that will support people to live where and how they want.
Why take this course?
The NDIA’s Home and Living policy is evolving. Yet again. Forget ILO and SIL - soon, Exploration and Design will be the essential first stage in determining how a participant wants to live and be supported. The problem with that? Few organizations and providers have a solid grasp on the concept of Exploration and Design.
Our Stage 1: Exploration and Design workshop will answer your burning questions: What is it? Should we be doing it? And how does it support people to make decisions about their living options? It’s time to build your skills and knowledge in Exploration and Design, including where it sits in the context of contemporary best practice and how to translate an individual’s preferences into a bespoke Home and Living solution.

She is a Director of the Centre for Universal Design and a past member of the NSW Disability Council. Sally was also the CEO of a disability service provider during the Hunter NDIS trial. And, she finished her Masters at Harvard (did we mention she’s dynamic?). One of Sally's three daughters, Nicky, who passed away in 2018, was an NDIS participant for four years. Sally translates her personal and professional experience into a deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities for business.
