What The Do Network does
The Do Network (legal entity: A C C Centre for Wellbeing Pty Ltd) is a Queensland-based, NDIS Registered Provider operating since 2018 in the niche of functional cognition assessment and professional development for allied health clinicians. The company's core offering is structured training and validated clinical assessment tools built on the Cognitive Disabilities Model (CDM) developed by Claudia Allen. It is the authorized Australian training provider aligned with the Allen Cognitive Group (USA), distributing and teaching use of the ACLS-5 (Allen Cognitive Level Screen), LACLS-5 (Large Allen Cognitive Level Screen), Disposable LACLS-5, and the Version 5 Manual (2nd Edition). It does not develop proprietary software or hardware; its differentiated capability lies in curated clinical frameworks, evidence-based assessment tools, and the post-sale clinical supervision infrastructure required to translate CDM theory into defensible NDIS-aligned practice.
The business generates revenue across four streams: (1) 2-day introductory workshops (in-person from A$545+GST, online from A$650+GST), 1-day advanced workshops (A$325+GST), and a sold-out 1-day Functional Capacity Assessment workshop; (2) physical assessment tool sales through its own e-commerce "Functional Cognition Shop" (ACLS-5 and LACLS-5 kits at A$109 each, manuals at A$185, Disposable LACLS at A$145, replacement parts A$12–A$15); (3) the Pollard & Hill three-book functional cognition series at A$105 per book or A$175 for any two, bundled into The Ultimate Assessment Package at A$520; and (4) recurring professional supervision at A$160 per hour delivered through Clinical Supervisors at KCPSYCH Nundah. Distribution is entirely direct-to-practitioner via its own Squarespace storefront and live workshop delivery (Microsoft Teams for online sessions; in-person across Gold Coast, Brisbane, and Townsville). No third-party resellers, marketplace listings, or paid advertising channels are evident.
The company primarily serves Australian allied health professionals — Occupational Therapists, Psychologists, and Social Workers — who use CDM-trained assessment to produce functional capacity reports for NDIS participants with cognitive, psychosocial, or intellectual disability. End-user demand for The Do Network's tools is therefore tied to the volume of Australian clinicians seeking NDIS-aligned cognitive assessment capability. Post-sale, attendees receive free unlimited email supervision, a Google Drive resource hub, and access to a community of practice, supporting clinical translation and creating repeat-purchase pathways into advanced workshops and package upgrades.

The Do Network competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Everyday Independence: Australian NDIS-registered allied health provider delivering occupational therapy, speech pathology, and behaviour support to NDIS participants. Comparable as a Queensland/NDIS-focused allied health operator that trains and upskills its own clinician workforce in functional assessment frameworks.
- Ability Action Australia: NDIS-registered allied health provider across Australia offering occupational therapy and functional capacity assessments for NDIS participants. Comparable in target customer (NDIS participants, OTs) and in delivering FCA services that depend on validated functional cognition tools.
- Therapy Pro: Australian allied health provider offering occupational therapy, speech pathology, and psychology services, including under the NDIS. Comparable in serving NDIS participants through allied health professionals and in training its clinician base in functional assessment practices.
- Allen Cognitive Group: US-based 501c3 that publishes the ACLS-5/LACLS-5 Manual (2nd edition) and trains clinicians in the Cognitive Disabilities Model. Directly comparable as both the methodology owner and a parallel trainer/educator serving allied health professionals in functional cognition assessment.
- Kairros: Australian NDIS and workplace rehabilitation provider delivering occupational therapy and FCA services nationally. Comparable in NDIS-facing allied health delivery and in upskilling clinicians on functional assessment methods relevant to NDIS planning.
- Rehab Management: Australian allied health provider delivering occupational therapy and rehabilitation services to NDIS participants. Comparable in target customer (OTs, NDIS participants) and in operating in the Queensland/NDIS allied health market, though without Do Network's focus on CDM training.
Broad incumbents
- MedHealth: Large Australian provider of NDIS, workplace rehabilitation, and allied health services across multiple brands. Comparable as a broader incumbent serving NDIS participants and allied health professionals, though not specialized in CDM/Allen-based functional cognition training.
- APM (Advanced Personnel Management): Large ASX-listed disability employment, allied health, and NDIS services group operating across Australia and internationally. Comparable as a broader incumbent offering NDIS-aligned allied health services at scale, but with a much wider portfolio than The Do Network's specialized CDM training focus.
- Occupational Therapy Australia: National professional association for occupational therapists in Australia, providing CPD, advocacy, and member resources. Comparable as a broader OT-sector incumbent offering professional development pathways, against which The Do Network's specialized CDM training competes for clinician attention and CPD spend.
Regional players
- Kinetic Rehabilitation: Australian allied health provider offering occupational therapy and rehabilitation services, including NDIS-relevant functional assessments. Comparable in target customer and in operating in the same allied health/NDIS ecosystem, though with a regional delivery footprint rather than a national training-led model.
