The Berkshire Association of Behavior Analysis and Therapy is pleased to announce the first annual "BABAT Practitioner Award”. BABAT would like to recognize the work of a regional practitioner who has used applied behavior analysis to make an exceptional contribution to the field this year. Practitioners should possess an advanced degree (i.e., Masters or Doctorate) and board certification in ABA (BCBA). The nominee must practice behavior analysis in one of the five New England states. Their work may be clinical in focus, or may include a focus on using behavioral concepts and technologies as trainers, organizational performance specialists (OBM), or in other behavior analytic roles. In any case, their work should be recognizable as ABA according to its defining dimensions (i.e., applied, behavioral, analytic, technological, etc.).
If you know of an ABA practitioner who has impressed you as having made an exceptional contribution through the use of applied behavior analysis, describe in no more than 1000 words, the contribution they have made and why you feel they should be nominated for the award. In your description, try to emphasize the role ABA has played in this accomplishment.
Self-nominations are acceptable.
The winning nominee will receive free registration to the BABAT conference, attend the speaker’s dinner on Thursday
evening at the conference where they will have the opportunity to talk to some of the leading researchers in ABA, and
receive an award at the dinner commemorating their accomplishment.
