Strengthen Consultation. Increase Implementation Fidelity. Minimize Crisis Response.

A school-ready, preventative behavior framework that helps Behavior Analysts support educators effectively and sustainably.

Many BCBAs enter school settings with deep clinical expertise but limited training in navigating instructional environments, teacher collaboration, or systems-level design. The result? Constant crisis response, inconsistent implementation, and limited time for proactive planning.

The Navigating Behavior Change Framework™ gives you a school-aligned, universal-support system you can use to increase teacher capacity, improve classroom consistency, and prevent challenging behaviors before they occur.

Behavior Analysts in school settings often tell us:

“I know ABA, but I wasn’t trained for the school system.”
“I feel pulled into constant crisis response instead of prevention.”
“Teachers don’t always implement recommendations consistently.”
“I’m asked to support too many students without enough time.”
“I need a way to help educators at a systems level, not just with individual cases.”
“I want to increase Tier 1 supports, but I need tools teachers will actually use.”

You’re not alone and it’s not a skills issue. It’s a systems-context issue.

Schools operate differently than clinics. This framework bridges that gap.

Why clinical ABA expertise is not enough in school settings

Schools are complex organizations with:

Limited time
Competing initiatives
Instructional priorities
Variable fidelity
Multiple stakeholders
Inconsistent environmental supports

Traditional ABA consultation often focuses on individual plans, but in schools, real change emerges when you:

Increase Tier 1 universal supports
Minimize dependence on reactive strategies
Maximize predictability for students AND educators
Build teacher capacity within their instructional reality

The Navigating Behavior Change Framework™ gives you the structure to do exactly that.

The Navigating Behavior Change Framework™

A preventative, school-aligned system Behavior Analysts can use to increase student success and teacher buy-in across classrooms.

This framework includes six core preventative strategies that help teachers to increase predictability and support student regulation, motivation, and engagement.

It also includes one response protocol that provides a calm, instructionally aligned, dignity-preserving approach that decreases escalation and increases teacher confidence.

Relevant to ABA-aligned practice, these supports target:

Antecedent adjustments
Reinforcement systems
Skill deficits related to executive functioning
Predictable instructional routines and expectations
Instructional strategies
Environmental structure

What this Framework Helps You Do

Consult more effectively with general education teachers
Increase implementation fidelity across multiple classrooms
Reduce reliance on crisis-driven support
Teach educators how to establish strong Tier 1 systems
Support administrators in decision-making
Bridge the gap between clinical ABA and classroom realities
Minimize reactive intervention and maximize proactive prevention

This is the school-ready behavior system Behavior Analysts wish they had during their graduate training.

What Other BCBAs Have to Say

Liz C.

“I really enjoyed this! So much information, delivered in an easily digestible fashion. It gave me another lens for viewing behavior as a BCBA and helped me understand how to support teachers on a broader scale, instead of just preparing to put out fires all day or writing individual plans when students can’t meet expectations.”

Ryan L.

“The course was fantastic and extremely relevant to my day-to-day role in the school district. The content was explained in a non-technical way, but still connected to ABA and the BCBA mindset. It helped me think about Tier 1 supports first when beginning a school consult. Thank you for creating content that bridges ABA and the classroom setting.”
