What makes it different

Built on behavior science.

Behavior-based

Built by a Registered Behavior Technician and BCBA candidate. We teach the why behind behavior, then the exact words and moves that work at 10:15 on a hard morning.

Practice, not just slides

Every course has role-play and modeling built in, so teachers rehearse a strategy before they use it with kids.

Hours that count

Taught by a TECPDS-approved trainer, with objectives, hands-on activities, a knowledge check and a certificate for each course.

Packages for everyone, some free

Free starter lessons, single courses, the full 24-hour series, and whole-team packages for centers and schools.

The Foundations Series

Eight courses. One confident team.

Each course comes with a blueprint, slides, handouts, a knowledge check and a certificate.
