Our comprehensive paid behavioral health training will prepare you to impact the developmental growth of children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and support your assigned child through their unique development opportunities, including managing potentially aggressive reactions. Under the guidance of a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), you will use evidence-based techniques to teach communication, social, and daily living skills while reducing interfering behaviors.

• Using evidence-based techniques to actively engage with children, including physical activities such as standing, walking, sitting, grasping, reaching, bending, kneeling, crouching, squatting, lifting, and occasionally carrying children or objects up to 50 pounds.
