The Competing Behaviors Pathway for Behavior Technicians: Applying Function-Based Strategies in Daily Practice | 2 RBT PDU CEU Credits

Sale!

This course provides a comprehensive overview of the Competing Behaviors Pathway (CBP)—a visual, evidence-based framework used to link antecedents, behaviors, and consequences for effective behavior intervention planning.

Original price was: $20.00.Current price is: $12.00.

This course trains behavior technicians to apply the Competing Behaviors Pathway in daily ABA practice. It focuses on function-based thinking and practical decision-making. As a result, learners can link antecedents, behaviors, and consequences with confidence.

The training shows how to analyze problem behavior and select effective replacement behaviors. Technicians learn to work within their scope while supporting treatment fidelity and client safety. Throughout the course, real-world examples demonstrate how to use the pathway under supervision.

In this course, behavior technicians will:

  • Identify antecedents, problem behaviors, and maintaining consequences

  • Select function-based replacement behaviors

  • Apply the competing behaviors pathway in everyday sessions

  • Support behavior intervention plans with accuracy and consistency

Ultimately, this course helps behavior technicians strengthen clinical judgment and apply ABA strategies effectively across settings. It supports ethical, evidence-based practice in clinical, school, and home environments.


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

Learning Objectives

  1. Define the Competing Behaviors Pathway (CBP) and explain its role in functional behavior assessment and treatment planning.
  2. Identify and describe the key components of CBP, including antecedents, problem behaviors, replacement behaviors, and maintaining consequences.
  3. Differentiate between socially mediated and automatic functions of behavior using ABC data examples.
  4. Develop function-based hypotheses for behavior and select functionally equivalent replacement behaviors.
  5. Apply the CBP framework to real-world scenarios to promote proactive, ethical, and consistent intervention strategies.
  6. Recognize common pitfalls in CBP implementation and describe strategies for maintaining treatment fidelity.
  7. Describe the role of setting events and how they influence the likelihood of problem and replacement behaviors.
