FAQs

To join mobo as a School Leaver seeking employment (for both Employment Services and Support pathways) you must be;

  • In your final 12 months of secondary education (year 12, or prior with formal permission from the school),
  • Younger than 22 years of age,
  • Live with a disability, illness, injury or health condition, and/or have a current NDIS Plan,
  • Be an Australian Citizen or permanent resident,
  • Not currently be employed for more than 12 hours per week, and
  • Have the capacity, with intervention, to work for at least 12 hours per week.

The total length of the School Leaver’s Employment Program (for both NDIS Participants and Jobseekers) is 2 years.

After completing those two years, you can seamlessly transfer into our Employment Supports for NDIS Participants, or join another Inclusive Employment Services Provider as a Jobseeker.

However, you must be no older than 22 years old when entering the program, to get the most out of it, we recommend joining before or around your 20th birthday.

You can transfer from the School Leaver Employment Program and into either our Employment Supports Pathways for NDIS Participants, or move to another Inclusive Employment Provider as a Jobseeker.

You don’t have to stay in the same program for the full duration of it if we agree that you are ready to begin your employment journey.

As a School Leaver, your funding requirements include School Leavers Employment Supports, line item 10_021_0102_5_3 in your Capacity Building Funding.

Please note that School Leaver Employment Supports funding is separate from Supports in Employment and neither can be used interchangeably.

Like Employment Support for Employees with NDIS Plans. Funding for School Leaver Employment Support (SLES) is claimed on a fortnightly basis, we’ll co-ordinate claiming the funding as needed to provide the supports you require. The amount depends on the intensity and frequency of supports needed and is unique to every individual.

Whether you are self, plan or agency managed, as your employment provider we will coordinate with yourself or your representative to reserve and claim the funding amount from your plan.

We update our NDIS funding arrangements annually, ensuring that you always get the best possible price for the services you need. You can find the latest NDIS Price Arrangements and Limits here.

Absolutely, having family input is helpful, plus, having another trusted person present may help the client feel more able to express their views and speak more freely.
