Event Details

Abstract

The application of the science of behavior analysis has been spanning across educational, professional, health, and societal domains. Within that shared space, behavior analysts are likely to work closely with other non-behavioral colleagues from diverse backgrounds. The lines of scope of practice and competence may become blurry, leading to increased opportunities for perceived encroachment and misunderstandings.

This presentation aims to cover effective interprofessional collaborative behavioral competencies as a means to address these challenges, foster trust, establish partnerships, and promote authentic interprofessional culturally responsive collaborative practices. The goal is to achieve positive, meaningful, and sustainable outcomes while upholding a shared conceptual analytic and ethical stance through the practice of interprofessionalism (Cox, 2012; Kalyanpur et al., 2012; Slim et al., 2021; Slim & Reuter-Yuill, 2021; Spencer et al. 2020; & Wright, 2019).

Learning Objectives

  1. Describe competency domains of interprofessional education and collaborative practices (IPEC version 3) that foster positive partnerships among members of an interprofessional team.
  2. Describe how the different collaboration models fall along the interprofessional collaboration continuum.
  3. Describe components of a framework in support of Interprofessional Culturally Aware and Responsive Collaboration (AICRe-Collaboration) that enhances building positive and healthy relationships and partnerships between professional disciplines, families, and multiple stakeholders.

This webinar offers 1.5 BACB Learning CEU.
