What you need to know in Tasmania

The NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission assesses behaviour support practitioners nationally, but some checks and rules are set by each state and territory.

Your Registration to Work with Vulnerable People

To work with children in Tasmania you'll need a current Registration to Work with Vulnerable People, as well as an NDIS Worker Screening Check ↗, which you apply for through your state's worker screening unit.

Registration to Work with Vulnerable People: official TAS website ↗

Restrictive practices authorisation

If a behaviour support plan includes a regulated restrictive practice, it also needs authorisation under Tasmania's rules.

Training and supervision online

Self-paced courses, 1:1 supervision booked around your week and recorded group sessions mean you don't need to travel to a capital city to train.

ConnectFirst™ began in Tasmania, and Meg was nominated for Behaviour Support Practitioner of the Year at the 2024 Tasmanian Disability Awards.
