Frequently Asked Questions
Where do I find my CE and PDU documentation?
CE and PDU documentation can be found on the certificates page of your ABAI portal. Documentation will not be available for printing/download until the event concludes.
Can I earn CEUs as a BCaBA, BCBA, or BCBA-D at this event?
No. The Behavior Technician Conference offers BACB professional development units (PDUs) for Registered Behavior Technicians (RBT). It does not offer continuing education units for Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs).
Will each session offer CE/PD through BACB, QABA, IBAO, and BICC?
Each session may offer different types of CE/PD. Please review the online program to see which types of CE/PD will be offered for each session.
How many credits do I get for attending a session?
Fifty (50) minutes of instruction equals 1 CE/PD credit, 80 minutes equals 1.5 CE/PD credits, 110 minutes equals 2 CE/PD credits, and so on. All sessions featured in the Behavior Technician Conference will be 50 minutes in length and equal to 1 CE/PD credit.
I have a CE/PD-related complaint. Who do I talk to?
Please contact convention@abainternational.org
Please note that ABAI does not submit CE/PD information on your behalf; you are responsible for obtaining your certificates and submitting the necessary documentation to the appropriate organization.
