Know My Rights

About Know My Rights

Know My Rights is a national microlearning platform developed by Ausmed and funded by the NDIS Quality & Safeguards Commission Grants Program (opens in new window).

Its purpose is to help NDIS participants and people who support them to understand their rights, encourage quality care, and take confident action when something isn’t right.

The platform delivers accessible, inclusive, and engaging learning through short modules, without requiring sign-up or prior knowledge.

Why learn about your NDIS rights?

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) exists to support people with disabilities, but understanding your rights is key to getting the most out of it.

This platform provides easy-to-follow learning to help you:

  1. Know what supports you are entitled to.
  2. Understand how to advocate for yourself or others.
  3. Take action when something isn’t right.
