Pros

BF really takes time to support and train employees before putting them in the fields with clients. They hold trainings for many areas from basic to ABA, parents training, running programs, growth and development, and more. Supervisors come out to support often! They provide constant feedback and advice for staff and client progression. Scheduling and management work hard at keeping full time employees at full time status. Team meetings are held every month to keep families and team on board and communication is consistent.

Cons

I haven't experienced any downsides with this company.

Thanks for your helpful feedback! We're thrilled to hear you value our training - it's truly something we pride ourselves on, as not all ABA agencies spend the time and effort to provide training to new staff. We are always looking to further our Behavior Technicians' (BT) skill sets, so you're right - we offer other supplemental trainings in a wide variety of topics, as well. Further, our managers provide in-field support, guidance and feedback to help BTs hone their clinical skills. We're glad you appreciate our monthly Team Meetings - another hallmark of a quality ABA agency - as these help to ensure consistency across team members, and help parents and caregivers to be a regular and contributing member of their child's treatment team. Keep up the great work and we look forward to seeing where the future takes you at Behavior Frontiers!

Pros

Pros are the children great kids.

Cons

They dont let you know up front that you have to pass every stage the first time during training or they will fire you. They tell you you will start at 10 hours or more but really it is more like 4 to 5 hours what a waste of time. They act like they are supporting you but really they only support if you get 100 percent. They say you dont need experience but you do because if your not experienced your not going to be given another chance. Everbody I met started from another company, so of course they do good. But if you don't have experience they treat you like you should.

Thanks for your feedback. Our initial training consists of a full week of in-office training to provide new hires with a thorough understanding of Autism, the principles of ABA, role play opportunities, and Q&A, and then 1-2 weeks of hands-on training in the field, shadowing a seasoned or Senior Behavior Technician (SBT) and gradually taking on more responsibilities of a BT with each stage of training. We pass new hires with a score of 80% or higher, and if someone does not pass a stage, we allow them another opportunity, with specific goals/areas reviewed prior to that next chance. The majority of our new hires who successfully complete both in-office and field training do not come to us with experience, but rather, this is their first time working with individuals with Autism. We understand that this is an entry-level position and because of that, our supervisors provide ongoing and regular overlaps in the field from the moment a new hire passes their evaluations. We wish you the best in your future endeavors!
