  • Be able to learn and utilize different assessments and evidence-based teaching techniques based on Applied Behavior Analysis

  • Have an empathetic and supportive attitude towards all students we serve
  • Have the ability to create professional relationships with students
  • Demonstrate a solid understanding of the environment in which students are being assessed and seeking assistance
