This course is for those interested in the science and practice of applied behaviour analysis in clinic, home, school and work settings. You will be provided with the knowledge and tools to help people with diverse needs learn new skills, become more independent, and overcome socially important problems, using empirically-supported assessment, teaching, and behaviour support strategies. You will be orientated to the field of behaviour analysis and the major theoretical and professional debates in science and practice. Through the core applied behaviour analysis units, you will gain knowledge and expertise which have theoretical and practical relevance to professionals in a range of contexts, including early intervention, general education, inclusive and special education, and specialised behaviour support. You will be challenged to make connections between research and practice and will be equipped to pursue education-related careers and/or further study in education. The Applied Behaviour Analysis units are verified against the Fifth Edition BCBA Task List.
