Organiser of Technology & Transition
The National Disability Coordination Officer program works to improve the coordination and delivery of support services for people with a disability who are at, or will be attending, university, TAFE or other training organisations.
The NDCO program's goals are to:
- Establish better links between schools, universities, TAFEs, training providers and disability service providers so that they can work together to provide the best possible assistance for people with a disability.
- Improve transitions for people with a disability from their school or community into post-school education, training and subsequent employment
- Increase participation by people with a disability in higher education, vocational education and training and employment
