It Happens for a Reason: The Meaning Behind Behaviour
June 6 @ 6:00pm - 8:30pm
In this 3-part learning series, participants will leave with a foundational understanding about the science of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) or “why we do what we do”. Families, caregivers and professionals supporting persons with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) will build skills around describing behaviour, understanding why it happens and promoting behaviour change.
As a result of participating in this workshop series, participants will be able to:
- describe the elements of an operational definition of behaviour and provide an example
- describe the ABCs of behaviour including setting events
- list the four functions of behaviour with examples
- identify antecedent strategies
- describe the application of function-based consequence strategies
- identify functionally equivalent replacement behaviours
Date: Tuesdays, June 6 to June 20, 2023 (3 sessions)
Time: 6:00pm to 8:30pm
Cost: $250 per person
Recommended Prerequisites: Fundamentals of Autism Spectrum Disorder, Everyone Learns Differently: Strategies to Bridge the Gap Between Learning and Teaching for Persons with Autism Spectrum Disorder
