Are you interested in working in the field of ABA? Would you like to become certified to provide behavior therapy in a one on one setting with a child with special needs?

The QABA is an internationally recognized credentialing agency in the field of ABA. DANA ABA is an approved ABAT Coursework Provider for the QABA and can provide you with the training and supervision you need to become certified. 

This process includes: 

1. 40 hours of training in ABA

2. 15 hours of supervision

3. Passing the ABAT exam

The 40 hours of training in ABA will cover the topics needed to have a basic understanding of the main concepts used when delivering behavioral therapy to a client. Course includes topics such as: Autism Core Knowledge, Core Principles of ABA. Behavior Reduction Strategies, and Data Collection and Analysis. 

After completing the 40 hours of training, you will need to complete 15 hours working directly one on one with a client while being supervised by a qualified supervisor, such as a BCBA. DANA ABA is a BCBA and can provide with you this supervision. 

After completing the 15 hours of supervised work, you will need to apply to and pass the ABAT exam. 

Once all three of these steps have been completed, you will be awarded an internationally recognized certificate that will allow you to legally work one on one delivering behavioral therapy. In order to maintain your certificate, you must renew it every two years. The requirements for renewal include: ensuring that 5% of your total hours worked are supervised by a BCBA or other qualified supervisors, and completing a number of units to keep up with science of ABA. 

Enhancing Educational Support with Specialized Shadow Teacher Training

Empowering Your Child Towards Independence in School

Does your child have a shadow teacher? If so, you understand the pivotal role they play in supporting your child's educational journey, especially for children with special needs. However, not all shadow teachers come equipped with the specific training needed to address the unique challenges and learning styles of children who require special education services. This gap can leave parents feeling uncertain about their child’s progress and independence in school settings.

 The Need for Specialized Training

In our community, many shadow teachers, though well-intentioned, lack formal training in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and other behavior management techniques. This often results in missed opportunities for enhancing the child's learning and social interactions. Recognizing and responding to specific behavioral cues, managing classroom dynamics, and effectively implementing learning strategies tailored to your child's needs are crucial skills that many shadow teachers are not initially prepared with.

 A Tailored Solution for Your Child

Understanding this need, I offer a specialized service aimed at transforming the effectiveness of shadow teaching through comprehensive behavior specialist training. Here’s how I can help:

1. Behavioral Assessment: Every child is unique, and understanding their specific needs is the first step toward effective support. I begin by conducting a detailed behavioral assessment of your child to identify their strengths, areas for improvement, and particular triggers within the school environment.

2. Developing a Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP): Based on the assessment, I develop a tailored Behavior Intervention Plan. This plan outlines specific strategies and interventions designed to address identified behaviors while promoting positive skills and independence.

3. Shadow Teacher Training: Training your child’s shadow teacher is the key component. I provide hands-on training specifically designed around your child’s needs. This training includes:

   - Implementing the BIP: Teachers learn how to effectively put the behavior plan into action within the classroom.

   - Skill Enhancement Techniques: From basic ABA techniques to advanced behavior management strategies, I equip teachers with the tools they need to help your child succeed.

   - Monitoring and Adjusting: I train teachers on how to observe, record, and adjust strategies based on real-time feedback and progress.

 Why Invest in Specialized Training?

Investing in specialized training for your child’s shadow teacher can dramatically improve the educational experience and outcomes for your child. Trained shadow teachers are better equipped to manage classroom behaviors, facilitate smoother interactions with peers, and effectively support your child’s learning objectives. Most importantly, they help foster a sense of independence in your child, preparing them for success both within and outside the classroom.
