Certified Applied Behavior Analysis Technician (CABA-Tech®) Program

This non-credit certificate program prepares classroom teacher assistants and/or paraprofessionals to use applied behavior analysis principles with autistic children. The CABA-Tech® training program is a skills-based curriculum of 5 units designed to ensure that each graduate has the skills necessary to successfully serve in the
capacity as an ABA Training Teaching Assistant. The methods used to support children with autism include: 1) to increase behaviors, 2) to teach new skills, 3) to maintain behaviors, 4) to generalize or to transfer behavior from one situation or response to another, 5) to restrict or narrow conditions under which interfering behaviors occur, and 6) to
reduce interfering behaviors.

The certificate program must be completed in one calendar year. Courses are offered on an open enrollment basis at Endicott’s main campus in Beverly and at selected off-campus sites in the Greater Boston area. The certificate is valid for a period of three years from the date of completion. To maintain the status of the certificate, a total of 15 hours of additional training must be completed during each subsequent three-year period.
