Who support parents and caregivers with compassion and skill
Parent training is one of the most impactful parts of our work and one of the least supported in traditional CEUs, grad programs, and training.
Parenting with ABA offers continuing education, tools, and training specifically for behavior analysts working with caregivers and families.
You understand behavior.
You value compassionate care.
And yet… parent training can feel harder than it should.
You’ve completed CEUs on ethics, assessment, and intervention —
but far fewer that help you:
Build caregiver buy-in
Communicate behavior concepts without jargon
Support overwhelmed families realistically
Navigate resistance, burnout, and follow-through
The problem isn’t parents.
And it’s not your commitment to quality care.
The problem is that parent training has rarely been treated as a skillset deserving its own continuing education focus.
This is continuing education specifically for behavior analysts who support caregivers - grounded in behavior science, delivered with compassion, and designed for real-world family work.
Here, parent training isn’t an afterthought.
It’s the focus.
You’ll find education and tools that help you:
Translate behavior analysis into parent-friendly language
Collaborate with caregivers instead of “convincing” them
Support families without diluting the science
Feel confident and aligned in your parent training role
This is not generic CE.
This is caregiver-centered continuing education.

Inside the membership, you’ll find:
Monthly CEU opportunities focused on parent training and caregiver collaboration
On-demand access to past trainings and resources
Practical frameworks you can apply immediately in your work with families
A consistent, values-aligned approach to compassionate care

The ABA Parent Coaching Toolkit gives you 23 ready-to-use parent coaching lessons, organized into 4 Kits. With your materials ready to go, you have more room for what makes parent training work: building relationships and earning caregiver buy-in.
Every lesson includes:
A slide deck to teach from
A parent handout
A full coaching lesson plan with guided questions and behavior skills training
A one-page session-at-a-glance
And more printables!
The groundwork every other lesson builds on. Start here with a new family to set expectations and build trust.
