NEIS

New Enterprise Incentive Scheme (NEIS)

The NEIS Scheme is funded by the Federal Government and its aim is to help unemployed people start their own small business. The successful candidates undergo an intensive training course in small business management for six weeks. At the end of the training, if their business idea is viable, they receive income support from Centrelink for a further twelve months.

Over 1,500 people have been trained through the Scheme and we are proud of the fact that over 85% of these businesses are:

• Still trading
• Networking with other community service organisations
• Participating in local and regional economic plans and activities.
