Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA)

A functional behavior assessment can be used when the intensity, duration, or type of interfering behavior creates safety concerns or impacts a child’s development.

What Will I Learn?

The AFIRM model guides the learner through four lessons to facilitate:

  • Learning basic knowledge about functional behavior assessment (FBA).
  • Applying FBA in activity based scenarios that promote real-world application.

The FBA module will take approximately 1.5 to 2 hours to complete. However, the module is broken into individual lessons to help guide your learning:

Lesson 1: Basics of FBA 20 minutes
Lesson 2: Planning for FBA 25 minutes
Lesson 3: Using FBA 25 minutes
Lesson 4: Monitoring FBA 25 minutes
