A Presentation on the PFA/SBT for Implementors (10 CEUs) – Retiring Soon
The roles of implementors in functional assessment and treatment processes vary widely. In this training, implementors will gain a clear understanding of the values and priorities underlying the Practical Functional Assessment (PFA) and Skill-Based Treatment (SBT) processes, as well as their multiple roles in these processes. Through a combination of lecture, active responding, video models, and computer-based differential feedback, they will learn how to talk about and implement the PFA and SBT processes with diverse client populations. Implementors will learn specific skills such as setting up analyses, collecting and graphing data, how to bring the joy, progress an establishing operation, prompt a skill, differentially reinforce, respond to both mild and severe forms of problem behavior, and extend the skills to new evocative situations. They will also learn the more general skills of supporting and responding to parents and becoming an effective supervisee.

Learners will demonstrate understanding of IISCA fundamentals, data collection and graphing, evaluation of treatment integrity, and implementation of SBT. Additional objectives include progressing establishing operations, prompting and differentially reinforcing skills, responding to mild and severe problem behavior, supporting parents, and functioning effectively as a supervisee.
