How much does plan management through EMPOWA Training cost?
By NDIS regulation, plan management fees are paid from a dedicated Improved Life Choices line item in your plan. You do not pay EMPOWA Training directly — there is no out-of-pocket cost to participants.

Can I switch to a different plan manager?
Yes. Switching plan managers is free and does not require an NDIS plan review. You can change at any time by providing written notice to your current provider, then signing with your new plan manager. EMPOWA Training can assist with the transition process.
