How can we set our adolescent clients up for success? The answer is actually quite simple. By following the interests and motivation of all of our clients, we can develop meaningful, reasonable, and life changing goals that will impact our adolescents from middle school and beyond. Join this webinar to learn about how your role of BCBA is different, yet equally as important to the future success of all clients beyond elementary school age, and what you can do to inspire and create meaningful opportunities that will last a lifetime.
Learning Objectives:
- Learn about the important differences of working with adolescent and transition aged clients
- Determine how to create meaningful goals for adolescent aged clients that will establish more opportunities for their future
- Recognize how to adjust and respond to failed attempts while working on life-long goals
