The growing number of individuals working to become Board Certified Behavior Analysts® (BCBA®) may be placing a strain on supervisory resources. The increasing number of certified individuals also means that many BCBAs are likely new to the role of supervisor. Many behavior analysts receive little, if any, direct instruction on how to be an effective supervisor. Whether supervisors are aware of it or not, their supervisory practices will directly impact the future behavior of their trainees who will go on to serve in a supervisory role in the near or distant future. This workshop will focus on strategies for developing critical skills needed to not only provide high-quality supervision, but also to place supervisees on a path to become high-quality supervisors in the future. In this workshop we will work to develop an understanding of the critical features and components of providing high quality supervision. We will cover: the need to engage in self-reflection and evaluation and to develop cultural humility, strategies for establishing a strong foundation for supervision in the first few meetings, consideration for taking a competency-based approach to supervisory activities, and why it is important to address complex, but often overlooked, skills such as problem solving, time management, organization, and interpersonal communication.

The year 2020 presented great challenges and opportunities for behavior analysts. Finding themselves in the midst of a global pandemic, many behavior analysts began using telehealth services for the first time. We have been engaging in telehealth practice for several years before the pandemic arouse. In this workshop, we will discuss best practice for designing telehealth practice in behavior analysis as it relates to the assessment and treatment of young children with autism. First, we will review the behavior analytic literature regarding telehealth as a service modality. Following this, we will discuss specific strategies for utilizing telehealth as a modality to assess both skill repertoires and behavioral excesses using behavior analytic assessments. Next, we will discuss how to use telehealth to provide behavior analytic treatment to clients through consultation, parent training, or direct implementation of behavioral interventions. Finally, we will discuss current funding issues with insurance and Medicaid for telehealth ABA services, as well as the role behavior analysts can play to promote funding for and access to this effective service modality.
