Structured Fidelity Coaching belongs in serious BCBA study because it shapes whether behavior-analytic decisions stay useful once they leave a clean training example and enter busy classrooms and teacher-managed routines, clinic sessions and day-to-day service delivery. In Structured Fidelity Coaching, for this course, the practical stakes show up in service continuity, accurate reporting, and defensible clinical decisions, not in abstract discussion alone.

This 55-minute webinar offers BCBAs concrete strategies for coaching paraprofessionals in both educational and clinical contexts. Drawing on Soar Autism Center's interdisciplinary coaching model, the session will highlight how structured systes, such as fidelity checklists, norming meetings, and shared evaluation tools, can create consistency and strengthen team alignment. Attendees will examine how coaching methods like Behavior Skills Training (BST) and Practice-Based Coaching (PBC) enhance collaboration, promote fidelity, and empower paraprofessionals to deliver high-quality care. The presentation will also illustrate how the ESDM fidelity framework can guide paraprofessional development, with examples of how to embed coaching into natural routines such as push-in sessions and supervision time. Participants will leave with an understanding of practical tools and strategies they can immediately apply to foster growth, accountability, and improved outcomes across diverse service settings. BCBAs who watch the entire presentation and pass a CEU quiz based on the webinar content will earn 1 Supervision CEU.
