New program prepares organisations for NDIS

We’re pleased to be partnering with Australia's National Disability Services (NDS) on a new program designed to help small to medium disability organisations prepare their technology systems for the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).

Improve IT for NDIS will deliver an IT improvement and system selection program for organisations looking to build their IT literacy and capability, including a roadmap for upgrading or selecting systems in preparation for the NDIS. The program is designed for organisations with 50 or fewer personal computers.

We will make sure organisations’ IT systems are prepared for the NDIS so they can:

• reduce overheads by increasing efficiency
• track budgets and expenditure and prepare invoices
• track participant plans and goals
• deliver high-value services and provide accurate quotations
• bridge multiple funding models not limited to the NDIS
• manage workforce requirements, including the day-to-day activities of an increasingly mobile workforce.

The program includes workshops, webinars, self-assessment tools and online resources, which will be rolled out progressively through the website.
