Discussions on the surrounding variables upon behavior analysts in schools have been somewhat limited. Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA) can benefit from a constructional approach to the social problems that can arise working in private or public institutions or entities such as schools. Exploring the role of relational framing for the BCBA, the staff, administrators and other trainees can aid in creating a positive and healthy work environment that will better help support the students (Rehfeldt et al., 2021). In addition, taking away principles of Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) can also help with improving classroom management, creating a responsive learning environment, and increasing employee satisfaction and retention. In this workshop, the trainers will use a Pyramidal Approach (Andzik, Cannella-Malone, 2017) as well as a Behavior Skills Training (BST) approach (Schaefer, Andzik, 2021), to coach BCBAs to make their consultation style efficient, positive, and reinforcing to the staff and students who are receiving their services. The workshop will demonstrate how to improve communication (Rajaraman et al., 2021), how to capitalize on “quick wins” or pop-ins for recommendations (Gavoni and Costa 2023), how to evaluate and remedy potential barriers to effective consultation (Goldiamond, 2002) and how to build rapport and increase “buy-in” with staff and students alike (Max and Lambright, 2021). There will be handouts and materials disseminated throughout the workshop.
