This Pennsylvania IBHS library is training for behavioral health technicians during their first six months in IBHS services, in 15 recorded sessions.

Topics include behavior support plans, assessment, behavior reduction, documenting and reporting, parent training, transition planning and working with IEP teams, speech and occupational therapists.
Sessions include Decreasing Problem Behavior with an FBA, Parts 1 and 2, and Transition Survival 101: How and When to Create a Transition Plan.
RBT® 2.0 40-Hour Online Training Course modules on documenting and reporting, assessment, behavior reduction, and severe problem behavior.

Training scope
Pennsylvania DHS's published IBHS training approval process lists trainings offered by a BACB Authorized Continuing Education (ACE) provider as already considered approved by the Department. Special Learning is a BACB ACE provider (OP-14-2437). Match these recordings’ documented clock hours and topics to your staff training plan; a CE label alone does not establish IBHS clock hours or complete topic coverage. First aid and mandated-reporting training are separate.
Price, access and trial
The current store price is $129 for 6 months of access.
A free 7-day trial is available. Choose the trial option on the product page and sign in when prompted. CE credit requires purchase.
