Events

ABA InternationalTM organizes a convention in North America annually and an international conference every two years. In addition, ABA International hosts smaller, focused events and workshops on a regular basis.

Annual Convention

ABA International's annual convention is held over Memorial Day weekend (the fourth weekend in May) and is attended by approximately 4,000 people from 40 countries. The convention provides a forum for nearly 40 simultaneous events during the day sessions. Presentations surpass 1,500 and contributors number over 3,000. Convention attendees are professors, researchers, undergraduate and graduate students, teachers, parents, and consultants in the field. An exhibit hall features organizations and employers in behavior analysis and a bookstore containing over 1,000 titles is also available. Continuing education for psychologists and certified behavior analysts is also available.

The annual convention offers a lively venue for discussion and networking for anyone interested in the field. We welcome you and all those interested in the philosophy, science, education, and teaching of behavior analysis.
