Why do I need to renew my NDIS?
Your NDIS Certification is awarded for a maximum period of 3 years. As part of the NDIS Renewal process, you are required to complete an audit. The audit gives your Approved Quality Auditor and the NDIS Commission the opportunity to review your level of compliance against the current version of the NDIS Practice Standards and any related government legislation, which may have changed since your last audit.
Regular audits ensure that your systems and processes are compliant with Practice Standards and are an opportunity for you to review any changes your organisation has undergone since your last audit. They also encourage continuous improvement of your services and identify areas for improvement.
What is the process for renewing my NDIS Certification?
To renew your NDIS Renewal, you need to complete an online application process on the NDIS Commission portal prior to your NDIS Certification Renewal date.
When can I renew my registration?
Existing registered providers can begin the registration renewal process with the NDIS Commission within six months of the renewal date listed on your Certificate of Registration.
To ensure your registration status does not lapse, you will need to submit your application prior to the end of the date of registration listed on your Certificate of Registration.
How can I prepare for my recertification?
To prepare for your recertification audit, it is a good idea to conduct an internal audit to ensure your organisation is compliant with the current NDIS Practice Standards and relevant legislation.
As part of this internal audit, you should ensure that your policies, procedures and other related documentation such as worker screening checks and training records are all up to date. It is a legal requirement to ensure your worker screening checks are accurate and current to ensure the safety and wellbeing of NDIS participants. This is also an opportune time to review your continuity of support procedures to ensure you have a plan in place for all events from personnel changes or staff absences to a pandemic or natural disaster.
