The 40-hour program prepares you to sit the Applied Behavior Analysis Technician (ABAT) examination with the Qualified Applied Behavior Analysis Credentialing Board (QABA). Coursework is designed to meet QABA's ABAT coursework standards and is mapped to their 2023 ABAT Competency Standards across all seven core domains.
You need a high school diploma or equivalent. No prior ABA experience is required. This course suits people already working as therapists or classroom assistants who want a recognized credential, and people entering the field for the first time.
The program is fully online and self-paced. Enroll whenever you like and start immediately. There are no cohort dates and no scheduled sessions to attend. Work through the modules in your own time. Course materials are in English.
The program price is $150 USD. Access runs for 180 days from the day you enroll. If you need longer, you can extend once for a further 180 days for $100 USD, with your total access to 360 days from enrolment. Purchase the extension at any time before your access ends, or within 30 days after. You keep all your progress.
