How YOU Can Manage Clinical Quality in ABA Autism Service Settings
Speakers: Jon Bailey and Bryant Silbaugh

This webinar will offer two perspectives on the issue of managing high-quality ABA therapy in autism service settings. The first presenter will define quality in terms of specifically making measurable changes in targeted behaviors as spelled out in the BIP. RBTs shoulder great responsibility in implementing interventions as planned, and their supervisors and clinical director are accountable for associated outcomes. The fundamental role of supervision is reconsidered in light of a systems approach to ensuring high-quality ABA services and outcomes. The second presenter will present a model of managing behavioral intervention quality using a highly efficient estimation approach to treatment integrity assessment. The model will be followed by data from the real-world  implementation of the model in an in-home and community-based ABA autism service organization.
