Welcome to the July edition of CheckUP Connect. Queensland Small Business Month kept our Industry Workforce Advisors and NDIS Business Connect team on the road in May. June and July saw our team connecting with and meeting health and community service employers from Brisbane to rural and remote regions.

This edition includes invitations to two free online workshops on Queensland’s Child Safe Standards and the Reportable Conduct Scheme, an update on how disability inclusion is helping Queensland businesses grow stronger and details on Queensland’s Mental Health Week Community Event Grants, now open for applications. We’re also looking ahead to the 2026 Health Gateway Forum in October, bringing schools and industry together to shape Queensland’s future health workforce.
