This training explores the self-doubt many clinicians experience — feeling like you should know more, questioning decisions, or overthinking mistakes. Using a behavioral and ACT-informed lens, participants will learn practical strategies to respond more flexibly to difficult thoughts, stay grounded in their values, evaluate competence boundaries, and continue growing without needing perfection or certainty first.

Too often, progress stalls not because parents aren’t capable, but because BCBAs haven’t found a way to truly partner with them. Real change takes more than clinical skill. It takes collaboration. The ACT Matrix offers a clear, practical tool to transform caregiver consultation: uncover values, align goals, and empower families to act. Learn to use it to spark conversation and develop meaningful goals.

Boundaries are often taught as scripts and policies, but for most clinicians the real barrier isn't knowing what to say — it's the discomfort before we say it. Through an ACT lens, we'll explore how psychological flexibility helps us hold boundaries under pressure, how experiential avoidance quietly derails them, and how values keep boundaries aligned, not apologetic.

Learning Objectives 1. Identify the four functions of behavior (escape, attention, access, sensory) and the limits of relying on function alone. 2. Describe six core yearnings—belonging, competence, coherence, self-directed meaning, orientation, feeling—through an ACT-informed lens. 3. Examine an assessment tool for evaluating how core yearnings show up for clients, for a more neuroaffirming picture of the behavior.

It’s easy to choose goals that are clear and countable. In this session, we’ll focus on goals that truly change a learner’s daily life. You’ll learn how to tell the difference between measurable skills and meaningful ones, and use a practical framework to select VB-MAPP targets that build independence, strengthen communication, and support regulation for lasting, functional progress.

In this session, participants will define assent and dissent, identify behaviors tied to each, and practice adjusting interventions when assent is withdrawn to empower learners. You’ll leave with practical tools to foster authentic engagement and move beyond compliance toward real care. Perfect for BCBAs curious about assent-based practice but unsure where to start. No tricks—just meaningful participation.

This is a practical CE event focused on giving BCBAs real tools to assess performance challenges with their technicians. We will explore a diagnostic tool you can pull out at any time, and discuss how it can be used to support staff in meaningful ways, beyond simply retraining them. This will be worth 1 BACB Supervision CEU.

1. Differentiate insurance-approvable goals from 4 common denial triggers 2. Construct a strong, insurance-ready goal with an objective baseline. 3. Revise a compliance-based goal into an assent-informed, adaptive-responding goal 4. Evaluate an academic/social goal for medical necessity by tying it to core ASD deficits.

Learn to move beyond deficit-based writing while meeting insurance requirements. In this free CE event, you’ll differentiate the medical vs. social model of disability, identify 3 strength-based writing strategies, classify elements of measurable goals, and practice 2 ways to create strength-based goals.

If you are a bcba consulting in a school setting, this is the course for you! In this 50 minute event we explore three common glitches that often derail whole group learning, access two data collection tools, and learn strategies to increase student engagement.

Behavior and skills are often targeted without considering fluctuating capacity. Stress, sensory load, sleep, and illness affect regulation. On “low battery days,” expectations may exceed capacity, raising distress. This session explores fluctuating capacity, its effect on learning and behavior, and how to use the Stress Survey Schedule to adjust supports proactively.

This is a recording. Participants must complete breakout room activities independently to meet the full 2-hour requirement. BCBAs can earn 2 ethics CEUs. Participants will learn to: 1. Identify factors affecting trauma in the disability population 2. Describe trauma’s physiological & behavioral impacts 3. Understand trauma-informed care principles 4. Assess case examples for TIC intervention selection.

Swimming Upstream is a learning circle for anyone questioning compliance-based behavior practices and wanting to do things differently—without doing it alone. We’ll explore how systems shape clinician behavior, increase ethical risk, and how community serves as a protective, science-informed support for practicing with integrity in real-world constraints.
