Course Objectives:
This online course is the same 10-hour course I have been teaching offline as a workshop for many
years. Countless parents, teachers, and other caregivers have attended my workshop and report
that for the first time they are able to manage behavioral problems in their children. At the
completion of this workshop you will be able to:
1. Complete a behavior assessment of common behavioral problems in children with autism
or other neuropsychological disorders. This includes defining the behavioral problem in
behavioral terms, taking a baseline, noting antecedent conditions, which cause the behavior, and
the consequences, which maintain the behavior.
2. Decide on a behavior intervention to eliminate inappropriate behavior in your child or
establish appropriate behavior in your child and implement this intervention.
3. Maintain the behavior changes and make them permanent.
The course will include brief reading assignments, outlines defining the procedures used in ABA,
and examples of behavioral problems commonly found in children with autism or other
neuropsychological disorders, and the solution to these problems. Students in the online course
will be guided in the application of ABA interventions to the behavioral problems in the kids they
care for so taking the course will be like having your own personal online ABA trainer.
There will also be email discussions with Dr. Brown where students can ask questions about ABA.
To register for this course: Please Download the Required eText BELOW, and this automatically
registers you. The sixty-page ABA course will then be emailed to you. During the self-paced course, you can email the assignments and quizzes back to Dr. Brown for feedback and he will answer your questions about ABA applications with your
child. (Please be sure that you have a valid email address.) The cost of this course is $59.95 +
$19.95 for the ABA eText (less than the cost of a single office visit.)
