Top 5 places to find CEUs for BCBAs

One of the most frequent questions I get is where to find good Continuing Education Credits for Board Certified Behavior Analysts. CEUs are essential for BCBAs® to maintain their certification and stay updated on the latest research and practices in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). However, with so many options available, finding high-quality CEU opportunities can be overwhelming. To help you out, I have compiled a list of the top five best places to find CEUs tailored to BCBAs® and others in the field of ABA. The organizations below are ACE® accredited and provide CEUs in accordance with the BACB®. I specifically crafted this list to only include CEU providers that I felt are working to re-humanize ABA.

1. Mindful Behavior

Mindful Behavior is one of my favorite providers of CEUs, offering a wide range of courses designed to meet diverse professional needs. They are a collective of neurodiverse BCBAs® offering accessible continuing education, mentorship, and supervision. They focus on humanizing ABA services through an ACT lens. Whether you are new to the neurodiversity movement or well acquainted with it , you’ll find a CEU for you. I love that these CEUs are led by neurodiverse presenters, many of them autistic themselves.

Whether you’re a seasoned BCBA® or new to the field, Mindful Behavior’s offerings ensure you stay both informed and inspired. Although their website is currently under maintenance, you can find their current offerings here on Behavior Live.

2. Across Environments

Across Environments is another top-notch provider of CEUs, emphasizing practical strategies that can be applied across diverse settings. They cater to behavior analysts interested in ACT, neurodiversity-affirming practices, and trauma informed ABA. Across Environments focuses on individualized and compassionate care for all.

Across Environments is ideal for BCBAs looking to enhance their skills in ACT. You can find their on-demand options here.

3. Do Better Movement

5. Parenting with ABA

Parenting with ABA specifically offers CEUs on parent and caregiver training using a compassionate approach. Most of the CEUs focus on caregivers, but there’s also a course on empowering staff. They have a Compassionate Parent Training Manual available for purchase as well.

One of the challenges of being an ABA professional is how the weight of our caseloads can affect our perspective. It can be easy to forget that caregivers also need time to process what they learn. These courses can help us regain the empathy needed for effective parent training.
