Join Bierman Autism Centers for a Virtual BCBA Supervision CEU Event

Assessment to Intervention Planning: Creating Socially Significant Change by Choosing the Correct Assessment and Designing Individualized Goals – Part 2

How do we ensure the goals we set truly matter?

This CEU, led by Abby Conley, MS, BCBA, dives into the ethical considerations and clinical responsibilities involved in assessment-driven intervention planning. Far too often, goals are selected based on convenience, insurance mandates, or familiarity with a specific tool—rather than what is most meaningful for the individual learner.

You’ll explore how to interpret assessment results with intention, and use that data to develop customized, socially significant goals that promote real-world progress. The session will also examine how the goals we select can either limit or empower a learner’s path toward greater independence—and why ethics must be a guiding force in that process.

Whether you're new to assessment planning or looking to enhance your ethical decision-making, this session will challenge you to think critically about the tools you use, the goals you choose, and the lasting impact those choices can have.

What You Will Learn:

• Define socially significant goals and why they matter
• Describe how to read and interpret assessment results
• Create individualized treatment goals that are grounded in real data
