Assessment and Analysis of
Severe and Challenging Behavior
A six-month online longitudinal guided practicum
This is an advanced,
competency based interactive online professional development program for
qualified professionals charged with assessing individuals who have
complex and challenging needs and with designing positive behavior
support plans. You will learn an evidence-based, state-of-the-art model
for providing effective, person-centered positive behavioral supports
that results in a decrease in the use of restrictive practices and an increase in the person’s quality of life.
This is a hands-on
practicum experience. At the beginning of this six-month course all
participants will select a focus person from their case load. Each
participant will conduct a comprehensive functional assessment, design
and implement a multi-element positive behavior support plan to address
the behaviors of concern and reduce the need for restrictive practices.
Feedback sessions are provided at the end of each assignment that
provide the participant with concrete guidance.

FAQ
· Do
I need to take the Modules in order? You should take Modules 1, 2, and 3
in that order. Module 4 can be taken at any time. Often Module 4 is
taken as a stand-alone webinar by administrators who have no clinical
responsibilities.
· Why
are the Modules broken into 2 Parts? The lectures are 6 hours long.
That would be too long for most people to be in front of their computer
or device screen.
· What
if I have to leave early or arrive late? We record all of the sessions.
A link to the recording will be e-mailed to you each day.
· May
we watch as a group or do individuals need to watch from their own
device? You may watch as a group providing that you appoint a person to
take the attendance role and submit that role to IABA.
· Are
you able to ask questions during the lecture? Yes. You can ask
questions by either “raising your virtual hand” or by typing your
question into the chat box. There are also question periods at the
beginning and end of each session.
· What
devices can I use? You can use either a desktop computer, a laptop
computer, a tablet, or a smart phone. If you plan on using a smart phone
or tablet visit your app store and download the WebEx app. If you are
using a desktop or laptop, make sure that the webcam and microphone are
operational. If you are watching as a group, we suggest using a data
projector and external speakers.
· Can I test my device to make sure that I can connect to the training? Yes, go to https://www.webex.com/test-meeting.html and join the Test Meeting.
· Are
there any pre-reading materials or handouts? When you register, you
will receive a link to download the lecture notes. You are also invited
to visit www.iaba.com/iabaresc.htm where you can find books and links to free articles and newsletters.
· What if I have a different question? Please contact John Marshall by e-mail (jmarshall@iaba.com).
