Do you have a job seeker with an idea for self employment?1 If so, the New Enterprise Incentive Scheme (NEIS) can support them with everything they need to know to help get their business up and running. NEIS provides your candidate with accredited training in small business, business advice and mentoring as well as 52 weeks worth of income support. And you can also claim a Pathway Payment outcome2 after 13 and 26 weeks – simply for referring your candidate to us! Simply refer your job seeker to one of our many NEIS Panel Members so that they can assess the business. What is NEIS? NEIS is funded by the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations, and is designed to help unemployed job seekers to set up and run their own business. Who can apply?

What assistance will the job seeker receive? Training is available through the Productivity Places Program in Certificate III in Micro-business Operations (BSB30307) and Certificate IV in Small Business Management (BSB40407). During the course, participants are trained in business management and will also receive assistance to develop a business plan. The completed plan is assessed by a NEIS panel and if accepted, your candidate will receive a year of NEIS payments – paid fortnightly, and totalling over eleven thousand dollars and paid independent of business income. They will also be assigned a Business Mentor who provides guidance for the first twelve months of the business operation. How to refer your candidates to NEIS Once you’ve identified a potential job seeker who may wish to start NEIS, you can refer them to us in any of the following ways:
Once a NEIS panel member notifies you that your candidate has been accepted into NEIS training, you simply record an approved activity on the job seeker’s Employment Pathway Plan.
