Is It Training or Is It Feedback? Ensuring Proper Plan Implementation in 24-Hour Settings (Standard)

Description

When treatment is designed by BCBAs and implemented by technicians, training must be provided to ensure proper implementation. However, when there are implementation errors, it is not always the case that training was inadequate. In order to produce sustained implementation, feedback must be provided to staff. Different types of feedback will be discussed as well as ways to identify if there is still an underlying training issue. Finally, the context of this system in a 24-hour setting will be discussed.
