The Graduate Certificate in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) equips you to become a skilled practitioner, using ABA techniques to enhance lives of individuals facing behavioral difficulties, particularly those with developmental needs across all ages.

Our curriculum covers both the theoretical underpinnings of ABA and practical applications of behavioral principles for positive change. The University of Missouri's ABA Graduate Certificate Program features an Association for Behavior Analysis International (ABAI)-verified course sequence, qualifying graduates to meet educational requirements for the Board Certified Behavior Analyst exam.

This certificate can be earned alongside graduate degree studies or serves as valuable specialization for both new graduates and working professionals expanding their ABA expertise. Note: The BACB mandates that BCBA candidates at the master's level hold at least a graduate degree in approved fields like behavior analysis, education, or psychology.
