You may be asked to be proficient in dozens of areas, including some you were not adequately trained for, or trained in at all. During this event, we will explore the concept of BCBA specialists and what a specialist model could look like. We will take a new look at old problems and explore how shifting the paradigm could improve quality outcomes. Learning Objectives 1. Explore the current system that generates BCBAs and the shortcomings in that process and the issues it can create. 2. What would a Specialist BCBA model look like? 3. How this new model can solve for many issues we currently face in the delivery of ABA.
