The Forum is designed for front-line staff to build capacity to deliver on key parts of the current and future DES program. This half-day workshop will give delegates a chance to ask questions and give feedback throughout the session.

It’s a terrific opportunity for leaders to support the commitment of early to mid-career staff, so they can experience the benefits of Conference, with specific content tailored to their needs.

The event will include Keynote Speaker Paralympian Matt Levy OAM and will be facilitated by Wayne Herbert from Lead Employment.

The Forum will include the following key topics:
• The new DES – how is it different?
• Job plans
• The new Quality Framework and your role
• The interim and new Performance Framework
• Community engagement and attracting participants
• Working with employers
• Ongoing support
• The NDIS employment supports
• Compliance
• Working with employers!
• Best practice discussion
