The BACB has completely changed the ethics code, again! The new code was published at the very end of 2020 and goes into effect January 1, 2022. Use this course as an opportunity to orient to the Code, rehearse some of its more prominent changes, and apply the Codes to some common case scenarios. The course was designed to leave participants feeling more comfortable with the new Code and with a better clarification of how the Code will influence their specific line of work.
Course Pacing: This course is 1 Ethics-type CEU and should take 50 minutes to complete (50 minutes/CEU, per the BACB). A course timer is provided at the end of the course. The timer is an imperfect guide and it is recommended that users informally log their time. User verification of time spent, and additional reading, are provided in the course survey presented prior to the final quiz.
