School-based behavior analysts face a distinctive training challenge: they are responsible for developing the behavioral competencies of a wide range of school personnel — teachers, paraprofessionals, aides, and RBTs — who operate within an institutional context that was not designed around behavior-analytic principles. The BCBA's effectiveness in a school setting is largely determined by the quality of their staff training, because it is those staff members who will implement behavioral procedures across the majority of the student's instructional day.
