Overview
Acquire Learning is a tool designed to help professionals in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) better support individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The platform allows Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) to easily plan, track, and analyze educational programs.
Project Goal
Visual Programming
Simplify the process of setting up and managing ABA programs.
Data Insights
Use data to help BCBAs choose the best programs for their clients.
Boost Engagement
Make the system enjoyable for both clinicians and parents to use.
The Challenge
Current ABA software tools, like Catalyst and Central Reach, require clinicians to spend a lot of time entering data and lack advanced features for analyzing progress. This makes it harder for BCBAs to adjust programs quickly and efficiently, which can impact client progress.
Solution
Visual Programming
A drag-and-drop system that makes it easy to set up and adjust learning programs.
Ready-to-Use Targets
A library of pre-built skills (called targets) that clinicians can use, saving time and ensuring consistency.
Data Analysis
The system looks at data to suggest which skills to teach next based on what’s working.
Cross-Device Syncing
The system works on both web and mobile devices, so users can access it anywhere.
