What will you learn?

By the end of this workshop, you will be able to:

  • Identify the core principles of effective report writing (clarity of purpose, consistent language, logical structure).
  • Link observations and assessment findings directly to recommendations, showing clear cause and effect.
  • Write outcome-focused recommendations that are purposeful, evidence-based and aligned with participant goals.
  • Understand how to present evidence in a way that builds trust and credibility with decision-makers.
  • Apply practical strategies to ensure your reports are concise, professional and respectful.

Who is this workshop for?

This workshop is designed for allied health professionals across all disciplines who are required to write reports for the NDIS, including occupational therapists, physiotherapists, speech pathologists, psychologists, dietitians and social workers.

It is ideal for:

  • Clinicians who are new to NDIS practice and want to develop strong foundations in report writing
  • Experienced practitioners looking to refine their documentation and streamline their process
  • Any allied health professional wanting to ensure their reports are persuasive, defensible and aligned with NDIS expectations

Why attend?

NDIS reports directly impact a participant’s ability to access supports and services. Yet too often reports are:

  • Overloaded with irrelevant detail
  • Written in jargon-heavy language
  • Missing clear links between assessment and recommendations
  • This workshop gives you the practical skills to write reports that decision-makers can easily follow, understand and approve.
