Applied Behavior Analysis has been defined as a scientific approach for discovering environmental variables that reliably influence SOCIALLY significant behavior, and for developing a technology of behavior change that takes practical advantage of these discoveries. This technology of behavior change has increasingly gained wide acclaim in every facet of human life because of the ubiquity of behavior.
Applied Behavior Analysis, which took its root from the works of B.F Skinner, is an offshoot of psychology. The technology of behavior change is widely used in Education as Precision Teaching, Errorless Learning, and Incidental Teaching amongst others; in management as Organizational Behavior Management; in Medicine as an essential tool in the practice of Behavioral Medicine, Mental Health, and Developmental disabilities. The tool is a sine qua non for effective parenting practices and for the building of the healthy society of our dreams!

HOW IT WORKS
GoToMeeting is a video streaming system that allows, the participant, to attend a weekend, dyadic training program, view live, hear the presenter in real-time, view the related PowerPoint presentation, AND ask questions if they need further clarification on any concept. Because you can participate from the comfort of your own office and living room, you do not need to travel to the reception center except during scheduled tests/examinations and or group practical presentations of assignments as the situation dictates.
The program, Applied Behavior Analysis, like Medicine or Clinical Psychology, aspires to train students to international standards, equipping them with the necessary advanced knowledge, skill, and professionalism to tackle the myriad behaviors of social significance in the world at large. The wide applicability of the principles of behavior analysis and acquisition of this knowledge and skill by the students will transform them into more knowledgeable and effective parents, efficient servers of the teeming population of persons with developmental, and intellectual disabilities and various addictive behaviors, as well as rescue the declining academic performance of our youths for a better society. Finally, it seeks to provide students with the requirements for international certification and recognition to ply their trade in any part of the world.
