Marco Polo Portal is an innovative technology company revolutionizing the disability housing market with its unique Marco Polo App. Designed to address the critical challenges faced by NDIS participants, our platform empowers individuals with disabilities by providing unprecedented choice and control in selecting their housemates and housing providers. This participant-centric approach not only enhances the autonomy and quality of life for users but also levels the playing field for smaller service providers and streamlines the process for support coordinators.
Founded in August 2023 by Aaron Cotton and Amy Connelly, Marco Polo Portal is committed to transforming the NDIS Home and Living sector. Our mission is to foster a more inclusive and equitable environment where people with disabilities can live their lives as they choose. The Marco Polo App offers a user-friendly interface that connects participants, providers, and support coordinators, ensuring fair and efficient matching based on the individual needs and preferences of participants.
With a strong focus on ethical service provision, quality assurance, and continuous improvement, Marco Polo aims to set new standards in the disability housing market. Our platform reduces the administrative burden on providers, helps fill vacancies more effectively, and offers a safe, transparent, and empowering solution for all users.
Skill Development
As the saying goes, no two people are alike. So why should the way we learn be any different?
At Peoplecraft, we believe that every individual has their own unique learning style. That’s why we offer one-on-one personalised skill development to cater for each person’s individual needs.
Whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to brush up on your existing skills, Peoplecraft will be there to support you every step of the way.
Personalised skill development can be tailored to help participants achieve their NDIS goals and provides participants with the opportunity to learn at their own pace and in a way that suits their individual learning styles.
Our skills development and training team leader, Sue Bourke, is a skilled educator, with many years’ experience and has drawn on this experience to develop programs that can be modified to the individuals specific learning style and paced at a rate that is just right for the participant. Sue also has extensive experience when it comes to disability (including lived experience) and is eager to create a program that is just right for you.
So, what are you waiting for? Get in touch today and start developing the skills you need to succeed!
Support Coordination
At People Craft Supports, we recognise that there’s more to your journey than the NDIS! Not only do our coordinators know the NDIS system and will help you understand your plan and funding, but we will also look past this, at the bigger picture. We will help you to set personal goals (beyond your NDIS goals), to focus on the things that matter to you across all areas of your life and will link you with community, mainstream and other government services.
