The move from study to employment can be both an exciting and stressful time. The following services are available to support students as they move into full time or part time employment.
National Disability Coordination Officer Program
The National Disability Coordination Officer (NDCO) program can help people with disability succeed in their chosen studies and move into suitable employment. The program targets the barriers that people with a disability face in gaining access to, and successfully completing, post-school education and training, through a comprehensive national network of 31 National Disability Coordination Officers.
The NDCO program works toward the Australia-wide coordination and delivery of transition services for people with a disability who are at, or who will be attending, university, vocational education and training or another training organisation.
The NDCO program’s goals are to:
- Improve transitions to help people with a disability from school or community into post-school education and training and subsequent employment.
- Increase participation by people with a disability in higher education, vocational education and training and employment.
- Establish better links between schools, universities, TAFEs, training providers and disability service providers so that they can work together to provide the best possible assistance for people with a disability.
