How it works

Skill building can be funded from Capacity building or Core supports, depending on your plan and goals. We work with NDIS health professionals to set goals and track your progress.

  • Goals set together with you
  • Practical, real-world practice
  • Progress shared at your plan review
  • Support in your language
Talk to us about building skills

Every plan is different. We’ll talk through your goals, check your NDIS plan and explain the costs before anything starts.

Common questions

How long does skill building take?

It depends on the skill and on you. We set small goals and celebrate each one.

Can family be involved?

Yes, if you’d like them to be. Family can help practise skills between sessions.

Do you work with therapists?

Yes. We work closely with occupational therapists, speech pathologists and other professionals.
