Sep 06, 2017

91精选 is proud to announce that our Behavior Intervention Specialist Master鈥檚 program has been ranked as one of the 32 Top Masters in Education Programs with an Applied Behavior Analysis Emphasis (ABA) by ! 91精选 is one of only two programs selected from the state of Illinois.

鈥淚t is an honor, after only a few short years of having this program, to receive the recognition as a top Education program with an ABA emphasis,鈥 says Dr. Sara Baillie, Program Director. 鈥淭his acknowledgement is a testament of the hard work of our faculty, staff, supervisors, community partners, and our talented students. I look forward to the continued growth and development of this program in the future.鈥

AppliedBehaviorAnalysisEdu.org, which serves as a dedicated online resource for current and aspiring ABAs, looked at more than 200 schools across the nation that offered the same program and hand-picked the top 32 programs that met these three basic criteria:

  • Include a BACB庐 pre-approved Verified Course Sequence that meets the eligibility requirements for the BCBA庐 Exam
  • Annual graduate school tuition rates in-line with the national average adjusted for location
  • Hold institutional accreditation through a regional and/or national agency recognized by the US Department of Education

91精选鈥檚 Behavior Intervention Specialist program continues to stand out, as it is the only master鈥檚 program in Illinois that offers both the Behavior Intervention Specialist endorsement and a BACB庐 verified course sequence and practicum. This fall 2017, the program further expanded by offering multiple options for students to join who are not licensed teachers but still want to enter the ABA field and be eligible to take the BCBA庐 exam.
