Event Description
Day 1: Education: Practical Functional Assessment & Skill-Based Treatment Training with Dr. Hanley
All implementers and immediate supervisors who will be involved in assessment and implementation must complete live or on-demand training.
Day 2: Application: on-site interactive analysis and treatment planning session with Dr. Hanley
Primary Training Objectives
- An attendee will be able to defend the practice of relying on synthesized reinforcement contingencies when functionally analyzing problem behavior and articulate the advantages of functional control over functional classification.
- An attendee will be able to derive the suspected response class, establishing operations, and synthesized reinforcers from interview results.
- An attendee will be able to describe the tactics for improving the safety, efficiency, and televisibility of the functional analysis.
- An attendee will be able to describe how to quickly and safely develop replacement skills within an open-door model that obviates the use of physical management and minimizes the possibly of escalated problem behavior.
- An attendee will be able to describe the generally applicable process for teaching contextually appropriate behavior following the shaping of communication and toleration repertoires.
- An attendee will be able to describe how to respond to problem behaviors were they to resurge during the skill-based treatment process.
- An attendee will be able to describe different choice models in which the process may be conducted to further minimize escalated forms of problem behavior during the therapeutic process.
- An attendee will learn how to use backward design for developing analysis and treatment processes for individual learners.
- An attendee will learn how to identify the components of priority skill sets (branches) for an individual learner.
- An attendee will learn how to design initial contexts in which the learner is happy, relaxed, and engaged.
- An attendee will learn how to empower clients in this same context while preventing problem behavior from escalating when challenging situations are introduced.
- An attendee will learn how to identify and develop communication and toleration repertoires for the learner.
- An attendee will learn how to shape contextually appropriate chains of behaviors comprised of relinquishing, transitioning, starting, varying, enduring, and persisting.
- An attendee will learn how to respond to all types of problem behavior were they to resurge during the skill-based treatment process.
- An attendee will learn how to collect data, monitor progress, and make values-based and performance-based decisions during the skill-based treatment process.
