Jose works as a BCBA for a national ABA agency. During his training, Jose worked with young
children with autism, all of whom were verbal and had primarily social skills or academic goals. His
clinical director (who is not a BCBA) has asked Jose to take on a new case working with an
adolescent with autism and intellectual disability, who is non verbal and is engaging in severe
aggression and challenging behaviors. With regard to Standard 3.03 Accepting Clients, what is Jose’s
best course of action?
Jose should accept the client because he has training and experience with learners with autism.
Jose should request that the agency provide mentorship and support from another BCBA who has competency in
this area, or allow Jose to shadow that person in order to gain his competence.
