Do you already have your graduate degree in the areas of education, psychology or human services but want to pursue a specialization in applied behavior analysis? If this applies to you, then completing the coursework to earn a certificate of completion within the existing graduate program in Special Education emphasizing a focus on Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) will be the right fit for you.
