How it supports employment

School leavers employment support providers have the funding necessary to build an individual’s confidence and ability to join the workforce. The funding is provided by the NDIS for up to two years, depending on individual circumstances of a participant. Every school leaver employment support is different, but certain skills could be mandatory in an individual program to best prepare a participant to join the workforce. These skills include, but are not limited to money handling, discovery activities, time management, communication, travel, personal development, and job-ready skills.

What is expected of employment supports

Participants will be aided by school leavers employment support providers to prepare them for employment. Supports create employment pathways and customise activities to meet the unique needs of every participant. The support can be delivered in a group or individually, or a combination of both. There are many kinds of support, including providing work experience in an inclusive environment, vocational-specific skills and/or employability, and other foundation skills that may enable engagement in certain types of work.

Employment supports must consider the unique circumstances and needs of the participant and their family when helping them transition from a structured educational environment. Some participants may be seeking regular structure and activity at least initially, while others may be ready to receive highly individualised assistance.

NDIS expects participants and school leavers employment support providers are expected to develop a schedule of activities that must be indicated on a service agreement. This is essential in helping participants reach their employment goals. The delivery and nature of the support will depend on what the provider and participant agree on.
