Businesses and individuals looking to become an approved NDIS service provider should understand the complete process of NDIS registration. This presentation serves as an easy-to-read and systematic guide to the applicant's NDIS registration journey, step by step, allowing the applicant to feel confident and clear at every stage of the journey. The first step in obtaining NDIS registration is to determine the group of registration that relates to the type of services you will provide. Next, the applicant will complete the NDIS Commission's online application through the Commission's portal, which requires the applicant to submit detailed information about their business, the services they intend to provide and to select the appropriate category of support to which to be registered. In addition to this information, as part of the registration preparation stage, applicants will have to prepare documentation in accordance with the NDIS Practice Standards. This documentation will usually be in the form of policies and procedures relating to the services to be provided, and will also include evidence of compliance with the NDIS Practice Standards. Depending on the level of risk associated with the services to be provided by the applicant, a verification or certification audit of the applicant will be required by a qualified quality auditor to be conducted in accordance with the appropriate requirements of the NDIS Quality & Safeguards Commission. The audit will verify that the applicant meets all requirements for quality and safeguarding when providing, or preparing to provide, services under the NDIS. The Commission will review every application after the successful completion of the audit and will determine whether to approve the application for NDIS registration.
