Frequently asked questions

What is Disability Essentials?

Disability Essentials is an online training library for disability support providers. It covers the core skills and knowledge that support workers, frontline staff, and team leaders need to do their jobs safely and well. Every course is mapped to the NDIS Practice Standards, built by sector experts, and reviewed by auditors, so providers can be confident they are using the right training library to deliver better care.

Who is Disability Essentials designed for?

Disability Essentials is designed for disability support providers of any size, from small teams to national organisations. The library suits new starters who need foundational training, experienced support workers refreshing their skills, and team leaders responsible for the people they manage.

Can staff complete training on mobile or tablet?

Yes. Every online course in the training library is built to work on phones, tablets, and desktops, so staff can continue and complete their training, anywhere and everywhere. Progress saves automatically, so they can pick up where they left off on whichever device suits them.

How do staff access the training?

Your team can access the library through an etrainu platform like Learn or Activate. When they log in, staff see their assigned courses, track their progress, and pick up their credentials as they finish. Managers get a single view of who's completed what, what's in progress, and what's coming up for renewal.

Prefer to use your own system? You can take the courses as SCORM files and run them in your existing LMS.
