Our ABA Certified Program

What is ABA? 

Applied Behavior Analysis is a research based, scientific approach to understanding behavior.  ABA applies evidence-based interventions which are data driven to shape behavior and improve quality of life for individuals with an ASD or other developmental delays. Assessments help identify skill gaps and maladaptive behaviors to target for treatment. ABA is frequently used as an intervention tool for children with Autism. ABA Next Steps will generalize this tool to teens and young adults.

What is a BCBA?

What is an RBT?

The Registered Behavior Technician® (RBT®) is a paraprofessional certification in behavior analysis. RBTs assist in delivering behavior analysis services and practice under the direction and close supervision of a BCBA or BCaBA, who are responsible for all work RBTs perform.
