Webinars – ABA Schweiz

How can ABA be applied to an adult population?

19/04/2021

In Switzerland ABA is mostly implemented in the treatment of young children with autism. However, the possible applications of ABA span much further than this.

ABA Switzerland is pleased to welcome Dr Shane Spiker back to hold another webinar for our members and friends on this topic! Shane presented for us last year on the topic of ABA in the treatment of sexual disorders, broadening our horizons by speaking with us about these other exciting implementations for the field of ABA. We are excited again to learn more about applications of ABA outside the field of early intervention. Join us on Wednesday 28^th of April at 8pm. The webinar is now open for registration in our online store.

Webinar: “ABA-based principles in the animal training context ”…

17/03/2021

ABA Switzerland is please to announce our next webinar with Nicole Pfaller-Sadovsky.

When: Thursday 25th of March 2021 from 8.00pm till 10.00pm

Where: Instructions for accessing the webinar will be sent to all attendees 24 hours before start of the webinar to the registration E-Mail address provided.

CEUs: 2 CEUs will be available for this webinar.

The aim of this webinar is to provide attendees with an overview of ABA-based principles and approaches that can be found in animal training and behaviour change programmes across various species (e.g., dogs, cats, horses but also more exotic animals). The principles presented include functional behaviour assessments, differential reinforcement procedures, chaining, conditioned reinforcement, extinction, and behaviour skills training for animal caregivers. All is discussed in the realm of successful animal training and respective behaviour change, as well as animal welfare and quality of life. The presentation will expand on relevant research and uses video recordings to help better understand the principles across different animal species. Examples from the presenter’s practical know-how will complete the learning experience.
