Who is a Self Made Spectrum Facilitator?

Self Made Spectrum Facilitators are trained leaders who deliver:

Business skills workshops for neurodivergent kids and teens
Pitch training & confidence coaching
Market Days & enterprise showcases
Entrepreneurship challenges & competitions
Pop-up programs in schools, councils, disability organisations and community centres “RUN YOUR OWN SELF MADE SPECTRUM PROGRAM"

You choose how and where you run your programs:

Schools and education support centres
Councils and youth services
Disability organisations and NDIS group programs
Community centres, co-working spaces and local venues
Grants, sponsorship or parent-paid programs

You control your local delivery.

We provide the framework, tools, support and ecosystem.

How the Model Works (Simple & Fair)

We’ve designed a model that is sustainable, ethical and easy to understand.

You deliver workshops and Market Days locally.
You secure your own funding (grants, sponsors, NDIS, schools or parent fees).
You keep 100% of your local income.
Every participant uses official Self Made Spectrum resources.

Self Made Spectrum only charges per participant for the official tools:

$25 per participant – Workshop Workbook
$15 per participant – Market Toolkit

These funds are reinvested back into our social enterprise to help fund:

Pitch Days & youth competitions
Business challenges and hackathons
Micro-grants and scholarships
An online learning hub and ongoing resources

This keeps access equitable for families while ensuring long-term sustainability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will people pay to join my workshops?

Yes. Parents, schools, councils and NDIS providers are actively seeking practical, strengths-based programs that build skills, confidence and real-world experience for neurodivergent kids. You’ll receive pricing guidance, marketing templates and examples to position your programs clearly.

What if I don’t feel “qualified” to lead workshops?

You’re not expected to know everything. Our training covers:

Facilitation skills
Neuro-affirming practice
Step-by-step workshop delivery
Managing group dynamics and sensory needs

You’ll also have access to a community of facilitators to share ideas, scripts and strategies.

Do I need business experience?

No. Many facilitators are parents, youth workers or educators who learn the business side through our frameworks and resources. We provide suggested pricing, budgeting templates and launch plans.

How long does training take?

Most facilitators can complete the core online training and be ready to run their first workshop within 4–6 weeks, depending on your schedule.

Is there a licence or membership fee?

Rather than taking a percentage of your revenue, our model is based on per-participant resource fees. Any optional ongoing facilitator memberships, marketing support or advanced training will be clearly outlined in your info pack.
