Personal development in 2025 is more than just learning new skills—it’s about shaping confidence, independence, and social connections that make life meaningful. This year, NDIS participants have more opportunities than ever to use their funding for personal growth, from communication skills and creative pursuits to self-advocacy and social engagement.

At Permalink Support Services, we’ve seen how a focus on personal development can transform lives, creating pathways to employment, stronger relationships, and greater independence.
💡 What Counts as Personal Development in 2025?
Under the NDIS, personal development can include:
- Social skills training 🗣️
- Creative arts programs 🎨
- Vocational skills and work readiness 💼
- Self-advocacy and decision-making workshops 🧠
- Community participation activities 👫
These supports help participants navigate everyday challenges and take on new opportunities.
