What is ABA?
Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) is an evidence-based approach used to teach new skills, increase independence and reduce interfering/unexpected behaviours.
ABA is rooted in the science of learning and behaviour. It helps determine factors influencing behaviour while using data to guide and measure progress.
