The module shows what effective communication looks like - from the perspective of NDIS participants - and how it supports choice and control.
It is designed to support NDIS providers and workers in meeting their obligations under the NDIS Code of Conduct to support and enable people to express themselves, be heard and be safe. It also supports registered NDIS providers in meeting their obligations under the NDIS Practice Standards.
The module is free and available to anyone, taking approximately 60-90 minutes to complete. It includes a downloadable ‘Supporting Effective Communication Checklist’ and useful links and resources.
