New Positive Behaviour Support Capability Framework (PBS Capability Framework)
The PBS Capability Framework is now available. It reflects the diversity and variation of the sector's capability in delivering behaviour support. Assessment against the PBS Capability Framework will form the basis for determining suitability as an NDIS behaviour support practitioner.
How to Lodge a Behaviour Support Plan
The NDIS Commission Portal is now available for the lodgement of behaviour support plans. When lodging new plans, please commence using the Portal instead of sending them to us via email. The step-by-step process of how to do that is explained in this handy user guide.
How to Submit Monthly Reports
Implementing providers will be notified when you are able to begin submitting monthly reports on existing behaviour support plans via the NDIS Commission Portal. In the meantime, please continue your current process. If you have questions or are unsure, please feel free to get in touch with the behaviour support team on behavioursupport@ndiscommission.gov.au
Notify the NDIS Commission Of New Behaviour Support Practitioners
Specialist behaviour support providers are required to notify the NDIS Commission of new behaviour support practitioners, which you can do via this online form.
