BHCOE Accreditation® is a certification given to an applied behavior analysis organization once it has demonstrated it has met and continues to meet an assortment of standards as determined by an independent third-party evaluator. 

CASP member organizations promote and implement evidence-based practices within their agency.

Components of evidence-based practices include, but are not limited, to the following:

• Intervention choices are guided by published research in peer-reviewed journals.

• Task force findings related to evidence-based treatments are also considered.

• Providers have the proper credentials and experience, as well as a respect for the scientific literature.

• Those who carry out the actual intervention are well trained and supervised to ensure treatment integrity.

• Carefully implemented instruction promotes initial success, ongoing gains, and ultimate mastery, as well as maximizes carryover across settings.

• Objective data are collected and used to guide clinical decision-making.

• Services are well coordinated, particularly when multiple disciplines are involved.  All providers use evidence-based practice and collect data to measure   progress.

• Ongoing interventions efforts are adapted as new findings are published in peer-reviewed journals.*
