Online Courses for Behavioral therapy

[Guest guest]

Sorry for off topic post. Someone was recently asking about techniques to

use with their child. I just found this on my email from another group. I

thought I would pass it on. It would be really good for anyone with limited

resources in their area.

application of behavior principles. Students will learn about the

principles of effective behavior change. This course is appropriate for any

individual who wants to learn more about how to use behavior principles

appropriately and effectively, *with emphasis on staff training and

development.* If you are a parent or caregiver of a child with autism or

analyst certification exam. The course will address all aspects of applying

for, sitting for, and passing the exam, with an emphasis on content and

strategy. An initial self-test practice exam will be administered and

detailed feedback will be provided to pinpoint individual strengths and

weaknesses in each of the specific exam content areas. The course will also

provide content area reviews and extensive on-line multiple choice practice

items, as well as test-taking strategies for maximizing one's test score.

This

is intended as a review of behavior analysis and assumes prior formal

training
