I. Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

There has been\u00a0an identified need for qualified professionals to fill a national and international shortage in fields requiring Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA). ABA qualified professionals are valuable across multiple sectors and practice areas, from teachers, psychologists, ABA therapists, developmental and behavioural practitioners, and various other human service professionals. Employment opportunities for qualified ABA professionals abound across education, justice, clinical, social\/community and business\/industry settings, including schools, hospitals, mental health centres, behavioural centres, residential facilities, long-term care facilities, IBI-Autism centers, and more recently, organizational behavioural management divisions and corporate teams.<\/p>\n

Regional and national community partners\u00a0have identified a need for academically prepared ABA practitioners. Since the inception of the Autism early intervention programs in Ontario over 15 years ago, there has been a growing need for qualified professionals in the clinical\/social services sectors. This need is sweeping not only the nation, but also the US and international centers. Indeed ABA and early IBI (Intensive Behavioural Intervention) are amongst the best examples of evidence-based treatments for individuals with developmental and\/or behavioural concerns. There is currently a\u00a0pressing societal need\u00a0for qualified graduates.<\/p>\n
