What are the responsibilities and job description for the Entry Level Trainee Working With Children Full-Time Long-Term Job position at ABA BEARS?
Work with children full-time as a behavior therapist.
Candidates must love working with children and personally value the ability to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. This is a great opportunity for college students or recent graduates looking to work hands on, implementing Applied Behavior Analysis and Discrete Trial Training. Some college experience is preferred, but no experience is necessary, as we provide in-depth individualized training. Our training program is competency-based rather than time-based or curriculum-based, which means that an experienced trainer will always be by your side until you demonstrate all the skills required to independently and effectively work with an individual child.
Behavior therapists work with children with autism (and their families) to teach them all the skills they need to lead happy, healthy, and independent lives. We help children expand their capacity to learn, communicate, and socialize with others. We eliminate problematic behaviors that impede the child’s ability to learn and engage in social relationships. We teach self-help skills (e.g. eating, brushing teeth, dressing, chores, etc.), and help kids overcome fears and frustrations. We focus heavily on play skills as a foundation for both learning and social development.
Please submit your resume if you want to learn how to be an exceptional behavior therapist who will make a meaningful difference in the lives of children and their families.
