The BDS Podcast

Since 1998 we've helped thousands of behavior analysts become Board-certified, primarily through the CBA Learning Module Series, our premier exam prep and curriculum supplement for behavior analysts in training. We’ve helped our clients achieve success by applying the scientific principles and methods of applied behavior analysis to the development of self-paced online instructional content and software. More specifically, we use goals and specific measurable objectives to teach the discriminations necessary to ensure that those objectives are learned. We then provide plenty of practice to ensure fluency and maintenance.

Just in the 12 years since I received my BCBA certification, I have seen so much change and growth. That change is even more apparent for Dr. Jonathan Kimball and Dr. Jim Hoko, Senior Behavior Analysts at BDS who have been professionals in the field for more than 30 years.
