A supervised learning experience is a critical component of becoming a credentialed practitioner in ABA. In order to assure a thorough, comprehensive supervised learning experience, 91快播’s ABA Program has developed a 6-semester fieldwork experience for all students enrolled in the program.
Meet Our ABA Supervision Team! Some Highlights of 91快播's skilled ABA Supervisor Team.
ABA 607 Pre-Supervision in ABA (Semester 1): Each student identifies and proposes a site (or sites) to complete the requirements for supervision in applied behavior analysis. Attendance at 2 seminars is required during the pre-practicum. The seminar is a competency-based course which is part of the Program in Applied Behavior Analysis fulfilling the requirement for BACB© Supervision. The seminar is designed to ensure the student understands the requirements of supervision and is placed in an appropriate setting.
ABA 627, ABA 637 and ABA 647 (Supervision 1-3/ Individual Supervision): taken during semesters 2-4 of the ABA Program - 12 credits total): This is an experiential learning opportunity designed to fulfill the requirement for a supervised fieldwork experience as defined by the Behavior Analyst Board (BACB®). During a supervised fieldwork experience, students complete 2,000 hours of applied work in behavior analysis. Students are supervised for at least 5% of the total hours they accrue during the supervised experience. The student’s primary focus during supervision is on learning and applying behavior analytic skills in an approved applied setting. Activities conducted during this supervised learning experience adhere to the dimensions of applied behavior analysis identified by Baer, Wolf and Risley (1968) in the article Some Current Dimensions of Applied Behavior Analysis published in the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis. The assigned supervisor directly observes the student’s performance and provides specific feedback related to the results of observation, work sample review, review of written work, and performance management.
