Sorry i'm a little confused, at around 29:30 Tania starts speaking about the fact that Support Coordination is three different levels but is registered under two separate groups, to my understanding all 3 levels of Support Coordination are registered under 0106: Assistance in coordinating or managing life stages, transition and supports, am i missing something/do i have the wrong information?

Hi guys
Thanks for all the great content you are providing. I have a question regarding SIL.
What category SIL is under? I am trying to apply for SIL but I am not sure which category should I apply to, as I can't see SIL there.
Please advise

Why did you not explain what theses acronyms stand for?

Hi mate,

You know someone who is a Podcaster?

You see... I`m taking my skills in a new direction and planning to help someone fascinate their Reels/Shorts videos and retain audience up to the end of the videos.

So I was wondering if you know someone who could use my help just like I did to Café Con Podcast and Fast Break Podcast.

Thank you have a good day!

Wish John had been clearer in his explanations about SIL, ILO, MTA and SDA, and not use the podcast as a platform to talk about what Aspire Hub has/does. I didn't think he demonstrated his knowledge or understanding of NDIS funding all that well, despite Paul and Tania's efforts to steer the conversation in that direction, so for me the podcast was a waste of 35 minutes :)
