Course Description

Over the past several years, there has been a significant increase in the demand for behavior analysts to provide consultation, support, and in some cases, direct services within the public-school setting. Many behavior analysts have little to no background in special education or educational law, yet are often expected to serve as members of an IEP team, tasked with determining what services and supports are necessary to provide a free and appropriate education for a learner. Furthermore, behavior analysts are responsible for implementing services in a model that may not align with best practices in the field. This discussion will focus on identifying ways in which behavior analysts may work collaboratively with school and district leaders to identify solutions for building capacity among district professionals to ensure that learners are able to access effective supports.

What You'll Learn

  1. Describe the laws that govern special education as well as the role of the BCBA within the context of an IEP or PPT meeting.
  2. Identify potential challenges that may arise when providing behavior analytic services in a public school setting.
  3. Identify strategies to collaborate with administrators at the school and district level to share strategies for effective and efficient delivery via systems level supports and/or pyramidal training models.
