This course covers four main subject areas:

  • A brief history of Behaviour Analysis, how behaviour is defined and the key concepts and terminology to understand the study of the science of human behaviour
  • Building upon the theoretical framework established and applying it to behaviours that challenge. Methods to analyse and record behaviour are detailed and strategies to reduce behaviours that challenge are explained
  • Examining behaviour that challenges as a form of communication. The course explores Verbal Behaviour and the importance of teaching communication through developing ‘mands’.  It explains key themes of motivation, prompting and using effective reinforcement
  • Exploring effective teaching strategies. Reinforcement, prompting and errorless teaching approaches are discussed in more detail. It also looks at specific strategies such as Pairing; Discrete Trial Teaching; and Natural Environment Teaching.

 

***Disclaimer***
All Behaviour Analysis interventions are specifically tailored to the individual and would be put in place after careful observation and analysis. The strategies mentioned in this training are limited examples. The services of a Board Certified Behaviour Analyst or a professional registered with the UK-SBA should be sought if support is required for an individual in your care.
