Ethics CEU: IEP Protocol - Part 2: Ethical Roles & Responsibilities in IEP Collaboration

Board Certified Behavior Analysts increasingly participate in Individualized Education Program (IEP) processes, yet many receive minimal training in the specific ethical responsibilities that arise when behavior analytic expertise meets the structures, norms, and politics of school-based teams. The IEP meeting is not simply a forum for presenting behavioral data.

Course Description

This ethics-focused segment dives into the nuanced responsibilities of BCBAs within the IEP team context. Participants will explore how ethical standards intersect with school collaboration—especially when navigating role ambiguity, advocating for students, or addressing team conflict. Through real-life scenarios and structured reflection, participants will practice ethical decision-making that honors student dignity, upholds professional boundaries, and strengthens interdisciplinary trust.

What You'll Learn

  1. Identify the ethical responsibilities of BCBAs during IEP development and collaboration, including adherence to the BACB Ethics Code.
  2. Analyze common ethical dilemmas in school settings—such as dual relationships, consent, and advocacy boundaries—and propose appropriate responses.
  3. Apply culturally responsive and collaborative practices to uphold ethical standards while working within multidisciplinary teams.
