Small to medium disability service providers across Australia are set to benefit from the launch of a free interactive learning program designed to help them maximise the growing number of opportunities generated by the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
NDIS Success offers disability service providers direct access to leading industry experts, who will outline the steps needed to thrive in one of the fastest growing sectors in Australia, developed by Community Business Bureau (CBB).
“Many of Australia’s 18,000 registered service providers feel challenged by doing business under the NDIS. They want to know what resources should be in place, how to develop effective marketing strategies, and what best practice governance will support their sustainability – and the first part of our NDIS Success program will provide the tools and training needed to maximise marketplace opportunities,” Ms Jane Arnott CBB General Manager.
“This flexible online program is delivered through a dynamic combination of self-paced learning, interactive webinars and peer networking, so participants can be involved at a time that suits them,” she said.
All providers who successfully complete the program become eligible to apply for an opportunity to receive six months of direct mentoring support from CBB’s market-leading consulting team.
There are sixteen grants on offer to help participating organisations take what they’ve learned through NIDS Success and apply that knowledge in their own circumstances.
The program targets senior managers and staff responsible for operational, marketing, HR and finance functions within small to medium sized organisations.
