The Behavioral Intervention Specialist Certificate Program (BISCP) is a highly specialized six-course and one advanced practicum sequence that imbues the theoretical orientation and practical application of applied behavior analysis. The entire BISCP is delivered online.
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a science concerned with behavior. The science of ABA attempts to understand, explain, describe, and predict behavioral processes so that improvement to individual and social conditions can occur. The goal of ABA is to produce socially significant improvements in human behavior through skill acquisition and the reduction of problematic behavior. The evidence-based technology of ABA is well established, with applications in the areas of schools, developmental disabilities and concerns in children and youth, parenting, and individual behavioral changes being particular areas of focus.
