Note: This checklist is a general guide based on the NDIS Practice Standards. Your specific audit requirements may vary depending on your registration groups, audit type, and auditor. Always consult the official NDIS Practice Standards and your quality auditor for complete requirements.

Understanding the NDIS Practice Standards

The NDIS Practice Standards set out the quality and safeguarding requirements that registered providers must meet. They are organised into modules:

  • Core Module: Applies to all registered providers
  • Supplementary Modules: Apply to specific registration groups based on the types of supports provided

During your audit, the auditor will assess your compliance with the relevant standards through:

  • Review of policies, procedures, and documentation
  • Interviews with management, workers, and participants
  • Observation of service delivery (where applicable)
  • Site inspections (for relevant registration groups)

Next Steps

  1. Review the full NDIS Practice Standards for your registration groups
  2. Select an approved quality auditor from the Commission's list
  3. Begin implementing required policies, procedures, and systems
  4. Train staff on the Practice Standards and your organisation's compliance measures
  5. Schedule your audit once you're confident your systems meet the standards (allow time for preparation)
