Training Focus Areas

ASSENT BASED PRACTICES

We’ve spent over 20 years defining, measuring, and promoting assent in ABA. Our professional development workshops show you how to recognize subtle signs of assent and dissent and how to respond in ways that build trust, engagement, and long-term growth.

Participants will learn:

  • Practical ways to increase learner participation
  • How to measure assent using observable indicators
  • How to train staff in responsive, compassionate ABA

PRECISION TEACHING

We use Precision Teaching and the Standard Celeration Chart in nearly all of our work. This powerful measurement system allows clinicians to make highly sensitive, data-driven decisions that lead to more effective interventions. This training is perfect for ABA teams ready to streamline data use and boost learning efficiency.

Our professional development options include:

  • Intro to Precision Teaching workshops
  • One-on-one mentoring for implementation
  • Hands-on data collection and decision-making exercises

PRAGMATIC LANGUAGE IN ABA

Pragmatic language skills like knowing how to take turns, adjust tone, or read social cues are essential for connection and communication. We offer a targeted workshop series that helps ABA teams incorporate pragmatic language into clinical programming. These workshops are great for ABA providers supporting clients with social language delays, behavior challenges in social settings, or autism-related communication differences.

You’ll explore:

  • Assessment selection and interpretation
  • Linking assessment results to treatment
  • Goal writing and individualized instructional design
