Training and education
Trained by nurses.
Signed off by nurses.
At Select, support workers are trained and competency-signed by Registered Nurses, ahead of mandatory NDIS worker registration.
Competency sign-off
No one works alone until a nurse signs them off.
Training isn't a certificate on a wall. Our support workers are assessed by Registered Nurses against the real tasks they'll do, and signed off before they support anyone on their own.
What sign-off actually involves
- A Registered Nurse watches the task being done, in the real setting.
- Competency is recorded against the specific task, not a general course.
- No one supports a participant alone until that sign-off is in place.
- Competency is re-checked as a participant's clinical needs change.
What our training covers
Real clinical capability.
The areas our nurses train and sign off, matched to the complex care we deliver.

Where this is heading
Building a training arm.
This is emerging, and we're honest about that. Here's the direction we're building toward.
Nurse-led competency now
Every worker is already trained and signed off by a Registered Nurse.
Ahead of registration
We are building toward mandatory NDIS worker registration before it lands.
A wider education arm
A structured training offer we can extend to the sector over time.
