Quick start: BCBA

For BCBAs

As a BCBA, you build each learner’s care plan. Targets you start appear in your Behavior Technicians’ direct care sessions.

1. Learn how a care plan is organized. Goals hold targets; behaviors hold objectives. See How a care plan is organized.

   

2. Add goals and targets. See Add goals and targets.

3. Configure each target. Choose a form of measure and mastery criteria, and assign providers. See Configure a target.

   

4. Start the target as Baseline, or enter baseline data and start it as Active. See Target phases.

5. Check the graphs as data comes in. See Graphs.

   

Started a target a day late?

A target appears in a session only if it was in Baseline, Active, Generalization or Maintenance when the session started. If your technician’s session already began, edit the phase change date to a day before the session. See Edit a phase change date.

Check what your technician sees

To see a technician’s target list, open the learner, tap Sessions, and open the technician’s session. The Observations tab shows the targets that session will collect.
