Course Description

As the field of ABA grows, so do the possibilities for how and where it can be applied. This panel brings together behavior analysts who have expanded beyond traditional clinical roles into areas such as parenting support, sleep consulting, health coaching, online business, and digital education. Together, we will reflect on the practical considerations of scope expansion, strategies for specialization, and lessons learned from real-world experience. Through guided discussion and audience engagement, participants will gain insight into how they can responsibly and creatively apply ABA in new domains, while maintaining professional integrity and competence.

What You'll Learn

  1. Explain how to assess scope of competence when entering nontraditional or entrepreneurial practice areas.
  2. Identify two or more strategies for building expertise in a specialized domain such as parenting, sleep, wellness, or marketing.
  3. Evaluate ethical considerations and business practices relevant to expanding ABA services into creative or online formats.
