Practical training experience
Other graduate programs in behavior analysis require students to structure their own practicum and find a fieldwork supervisor.At the Global Institute of Behavior Analysis, we designed the practical training component with flexibility and student support in mind. Our practical training coordinatorwill guide you each step of the way through your fieldwork experience,from selecting a site location to working with your supervisor.
You select your learning experience
You may choose between two practicum experiences:intensive supervised fieldwork or supervised fieldwork.
Intensive supervised fieldwork
- 1,500 hours
- 10% of hours overseen by qualified supervisor
- 4 meetings/observations monthly
Supervised fieldwork hours
- 2,000 hours
- 5% of hours overseen by qualified supervisor
- 2 meetings/observations monthly
You set the learning pace
The program does not require you to complete the entirety of your supervised fieldwork while in the w88 casino games master's program in behavior analysis. You areonly required to complete half of the required BACB® hours during the program.The remaining hours can be completed after you finish the master's program and move into the next phase of your career.
Our goal is to empower our students to advocate for themselves. In pursuit of this goal, we give a range rather than a fixed requirement for fieldwork hours accrued every month of the program. This allows you some flexibility in determining your schedule to balance your educational goals, work, and personal life. The focus is on the quality of the training rather than quantity. Quality is monitored by our Practical Training Coordinator and promoted through the training we offer supervisors.
Our practicum courses not only include the coordination of fieldwork but also exam preparation. Students will complete test preparation modules throughout the program to ensure students graduate ready to take the BACB® certification exam.
Practical training can take place in multiple environments with a variety of clients. OnABA will train and coordinate with each supervisor to make sure experience meets each student’s needs. Students can participate in a blend of group and individual meetings with their supervisor. Supervisors will observe trainees performing behavior analytic tasks and provide guidance and feedback. During meetings, supervisors will model technical, professional, and ethical acquisition targets. Supervisors will teach trainees to monitor the effects of behavioral service delivery and oversee this process. The supervisor will also monitor the outcomes of their own supervision and make changes to procedures as needed.
In addition to observations and meetings, supervisors will direct trainees to complete client related, BACB task-list oriented assignments. These assignments will include readings and discussion, behavioral program development, literature reviews on client related topics, data analysis and interpretation, developing data recording systems, etc. These assignments will be reviewed during meetings, and feedback will be provided.
Each student will need to identify a practical training site. An affiliate agreement must be signed between the practical training site and the w88 casino games, Reno. Students will have from the time of admission to the second semester of the program to secure this.
Each student must identify a supervisor to oversee their practical training. OnABA staff will review and approve the credentials of all supervisors. Supervisors must participate in training provided by OnABA. An approved contract must be signed by the supervisor and the student.
