How to use this template
Use this checklist to test whether your NDIS provider evidence can support verification, certification, registration renewal, internal audit or regulator review.
The point is not to collect every document in the business. The point is to prove that obligations, evidence, owners, participant records, worker controls and improvement actions are connected.
