Practical guide to NDIS Registration Groups

Whether you're a new provider or looking to diversify your services, being across the NDIS Registered Groups (RGs) is key to delivering high quality, participant-centred support

Getting familiar with the RGs isn’t just about ticking boxes. It’s about making sure your services genuinely meet the needs of participants. When you understand how the RGs are structured, it becomes easier to align your supports with what participants are funded for, stay compliant with registration requirements, and spot opportunities to grow your offerings. It also helps you communicate more clearly with participants and support coordinators, which builds trust and makes collaboration smoother.

This guide outlines the RGs currently recognised under the NDIS and what they mean for your organisation.
