    IBCCES certification has helped me both as a professional and an employee. I am more confident in providing my services to the clients privately as well as through the organization I work with. The training also helped me clearly, revise and redefine the concepts of ABA and to apply them easily in daily practice.

    As I strive to expand my knowledge and expertise to work with individual with cognitive disorders, the IBCCES credential provided tons of insight to move forward in my career and as an advocate for all the students I work with.
    The training also opened my mind to wider perspectives on how to deliver a better quality of teaching instructions to my students.. It gave me a deeper understanding and appreciation of the challenges these students face having to deal with their inabilities to access relevant and accurate information and comprehend tasks and the basic skills they need to develop to help overcome the challenges they face.
