FAQs - SLES and Plan Hero
What is SLES in the NDIS?
School Leaver Employment Supports (SLES) help young people build the skills they need to find and keep a job after finishing school. This can include things like work experience, job skills training, and confidence building.
How does plan management support SLES?
A Plan Manager helps by paying your SLES provider invoices, checking they are claimed from the correct NDIS category, and helping you understand how your SLES budget is tracking.
Does the NDIS help with employment?
Yes.
The NDIS can fund supports that help people build skills and confidence to prepare for and find work, such as School Leaver Employment Supports (SLES), employment preparation, and workplace skill development. The goal is to help participants move toward meaningful and sustainable employment.
Can Plan Hero help me choose a SLES provider?
We don’t choose or coordinate providers, but we can help you understand what your NDIS funding can be used for and whether a service is likely to be claimable before you commit.
What can you use SLES NDIS funding for?
SLES funding can be used for supports that help you prepare for work, such as work experience, job skills training, resume and interview preparation, travel training, and building confidence and independence for the workplace. It’s designed to help school leavers develop the skills they need to move toward employment.

Does Plan Management cost extra?
No.
Plan Management is funded separately within your NDIS plan.
It does not reduce the funding available for your other supports.
What if I don’t understand the reports about my funding?
That’s exactly why we built simple, visual reporting. You’ll be able to see at a glance how much funding you’ve used, what’s left, and how long it will last. We’ll also give you clear explanations so you can plan ahead without stress.
Will I have one Plan Manager or a different person each time?
You’ll have a small expert team who knows your history and preferences. That way, you don’t have to repeat your story every time. If one of your Plan Managers is away, the other can step in seamlessly.
How quickly can I reach someone if I have a question?
You won’t wait on hold or get stuck in a call centre. We answer the phone, reply to emails quickly, and always call back if we miss you. ABI recovery can be unpredictable, and we know sometimes you need answers straight away.
My family is already stretched thin with rehab and appointments. Will Plan Hero make things easier?
Yes. That’s our whole purpose — to take the stress of NDIS admin off your plate. We pay invoices, track your budget, and explain what you can claim, so you can focus on what matters: family life, recovery, and progress.
