About this course

Starting a new ABA case can feel like jumping into a moving train—especially when your new Behavioral Interventionist (BI) has zero experience. This 0.5-credit CEU is your crash course in creating first sessions that stick! Designed for busy BCBAs, this training breaks down the art and science of onboarding in a way that’s practical, engaging, and actually fun to implement. You’ll learn how to prepare your case for success before the BI even walks in, how to coach new staff with confidence and compassion, and how to transform “nervous beginner energy” into enthusiastic, skillful implementation. From quick prep tools to shadowing structures and feedback systems, this course gives you the roadmap to build competence, confidence, and long-term retention—one well-planned first session at a time.
