This informative ABA webinar introduces behavior technicians to choice-making instruction for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities. It explains why teaching choice-making is a key part of ethical, client-centered ABA practice. These skills support independence, engagement, and overall quality of life.

The course also examines assent and assent withdrawal as outlined in the BACB® Ethics Code for Behavior Analysts (2022). Learners explore how honoring assent promotes dignity, autonomy, and humane treatment. In addition, the training shows how assent aligns with ethical decision-making and everyday instructional planning.

Throughout the webinar, behavior technicians are introduced to practical, evidence-based strategies that:

  • increase learner participation and engagement

  • reduce resistance during instruction

  • improve social validity of treatment goals

  • support ethical, assent-based practice

By strengthening choice-making and assent-based strategies, learners are better prepared to support willingness to learn, improve instructional outcomes, and uphold ethical standards in ABA settings.

Course access is provided for three (3) years from the date of purchase.
