ADVERTISING FEATURE: Life Skills development tailored to individual NDIS goals

BUILDING independence and confidence is at the heart of every NDIS journey, and The Education Centre is proud to support local participants through high-quality Life Skills programs across Coffs Harbour, Woolgoolga and Grafton.

With more than 20 years supporting families in the region, The Education Centre has expanded its services to include one-on-one Life Skills development tailored to individual NDIS goals.

Participants learn practical skills that make everyday life easier – such as budgeting, managing money, planning, organisation, communication, problem-solving and social connection.

Programs also incorporate emotional regulation strategies, confidence building and activities that help individuals participate more fully in their community.

Each plan is personalised.

“Our qualified staff take the time to understand every participant’s goals, strengths and challenges,” the team told NOTA.

“Together, we design sessions that are engaging, achievable and genuinely meaningful.

“For school-aged children, this may involve developing communication tools, following multi-step directions or building social and emotional skills.

“For adults, it may focus on independent living, digital literacy, community engagement or strengthening functional literacy and numeracy.”
