Episode 124 - School Consulting w/ Matt Cicoria

Outta tha’ way, professors (Diana and Jackie). It’s time for the BCBA working-class to shine! Joking aside, this week we focus on research related to being the best darn behavior consultants to teachers and to schools. And, to do it up right, we invited our podcasting pal, Matt Cicoria of the Behavioral Observations podcast to join us and to share his expertise. And if you think all we do is share our favorite TAs to teach new skills, then buckle up, because you’re in for a deep dive into consulting culture.
