When the NDIS was originally envisaged in its early kind of pilots and design phases, the idea was that it would operate in much the same way across Australia. A central feature of the design was that it would be nationally consistent. Has this been the experience of NDIS participants and providers in rural and remote areas of Australia? How has COVID-19 changed access to services in these areas? In this bonus episode, we hear from Julie Cullenward, the Practice Lead for Disability and Workforce Development at Marathon Health. Julie has over 25 years' experience in service delivery in rural and remote areas in occupational therapy, education and the disability sector. We talk to Julie about her experiences of transitioning to working under the NDIS, the strategies that her organisation has used to recruit and retain allied health professionals in rural and remote areas and the innovative practices used to continue delivering services during the COVID-19 pandemic.Read the transcript of this interview on the ASID website.Read more about Marathon Health https://www.marathonhealth.com.au/ and facebook page https://www.facebook.com/marathonhealthaust/Read Julie's article for OTA Connections https://issuu.com/occupational-therapy-australia/docs/ota_connections_summer_2020Explore this Allied Health Rural Generalist Pathway program – a new program aimed at rural practitioners https://sarrah.org.au/ahrgpWe want to hear from you!We would like to hear from NDIS participants, people with intellectual disability and their families, who are living in rural and remote areas.

When the NDIS was originally envisaged in its early kind of pilots and design phases, the idea was that it would operate in much the same way across Australia. A central feature of the design was that it would be nationally consistent. Has this been the experience of NDIS participants and providers in rural and remote areas of Australia? How has COVID-19 changed access to services in these areas? In this episode, we hear from Dr Stuart Wark, from the School of Rural Medicine at the University of New England. He talks about the key issues that NDIS participants in rural and remote areas are facing and how the uptake in the use of telehealth during the COVID-19 pandemic could improve access to services for NDIS participants. You can learn more about Dr Wark’s work in his article in the Rural and Remote edition of IDA magazine.

How far have we come to understand and celebrate the sexuality experiences and identities of LBGTQIA+ adults who have intellectual disability? Do they feel included at LGBTIQA+ spaces and events?

While progress has been made, men still hold 60 per cent of senior positions within the Australian Medical Research Institute's 49-member organisations, according to 2018 data. For International Women's Day, six female leaders in medical research come together to discuss the professional challenges they've overcome, to help encourage more women in science to build successful, enduring careers. Professor Fabienne Mackay, head of the School of Biomedical Sciences, joins Professor Kathryn North AC, Director of the Murdoch Children's Research Institute with Laureate Professor Ingrid Scheffer AO and others to dispel some myths about women working at the cutting-edge of medical research. “Role models will not ask aspiring young women what would help them, but rather what stops them,” says Professor Mackay. “At a point in your life something will drive your passion, it will come early or later depending on the person, but once you have that passion nothing should stop you.” Recorded: March 7, 2019.

Now you know everything about internships, what else is available? We present other ways to bridge the gap from the classroom to the workplace. From starting a business to getting the most out of clubs and societies, we have you covered.An internship is not right for everyone and in this penultimate episode of Starting Somewhere we present the alternatives.Staying within the structure of the university you can still get a load of great experience; industry projects, exchange study or placements abroad. We also talk to Global Consulting Group, a student led consultancy that is doing really interesting work with nonprofits and Australian Volunteers International and their US equivalent, the PeaceCorps speak volunteering abroad and getting out of your comfort zone.

The dark side of internships. We explore the law; ‘Dodgy’ names and shames internships that might be flouting it. Plus an interview with Amalia Illgner, a UK intern taking Monocle to court for unpaid wages. Starting Somewhere gets serious!With 80% of internships unpaid, especially in the media, creative and marketing industries the number of people who can do them is immediately limited. If you don't have the resources to support yourself while you work for free then internships won’t work for you. We explore what this means for the makeup of the labour force in Australia, social mobility and the law, with Interns Australia director Jack Kenchington Evans, and ‘Dodgy’ the person behind the ‘Dodgy Internships Australia’ Twitter feed, naming and shaming firms who appear not to be complying with Australia's fair work legislation. We answer the question, can a good internship be unfair? And is that OK sometimes? If you have any stories about dodgy internships or standing your ground, we would love to hear them.

So what does a good internship look like? We break down the features with plenty of examples of companies treating interns right and reaping the rewards. But what does it take to land a good internship? And can a good one still be unfair? This one is for the companies! We uncover the 5 vital ingredients in a good internship. From application to orientation to exit interview, what exactly goes into a good internship? We talk to two top-ranked companies from the Internships Australia annual rankings. We hear how they hire and what they give to and get from their interns. Up to now, it’s all been on the interns, but companies have a lot to gain and little to give when it comes to internships. Colin McLeod, Investor, director and innovator tells us why companies should pay attention to interns, and ShineWing Australia tell us what they do to hold onto good interns once they accept an offer, clue: crazygolf!How do you recognise a good internship? We talk to Internships Australia about their accreditation scheme, and hear from former interns that turned their time into a job, and hear what their good internships was really like.

Uni...clubs... a job and now an internship! We talk to people who have burnt out, how they got there and how they got back.
