Task List 5 includes a section regarding personnel supervision and management, highlighting the importance of these skills for behavior analysts. This workshop reviews ethical considerations for BACB supervision, as well as literature on effective supervision practices. In addition, recent supervision publications will be reviewed to discuss current practices being utilized is BCBA supervision. This activity-based model sets project-defined benchmarks for progress through supervision, and includes specific and clear rubrics for evaluation of mastery of each project aligned to the BACB Task List. Ongoing evaluation of supervisee progress and supervisor effectiveness are components of the model. Participants will receive the activities reviewed to utilize with supervisees. |
