    Description
    The behavior technician program prepares individuals for a certification exam and frontline work in the field of applied behavior analysis. This is an entry-level program designed to meet training national requirements for certification as a behavior technician. Classes in this course will cover defining behavior, Functional Behavior Assessment, Antecedent and Consequence Interventions, Measurement, Community and Social Skills, and Ethics and Professionalism. This is the second course in a two-course series. Students who successfully complete both courses in this series will learn the skills required to take any of the three nationally accredited behavior technician exams, such as Applied Behavior Analysis Technician (ABAT), Board Certified Autism Technician (BCAT), and Registered Behavior Technician (RBT).
