Effective time management is an essential component of quality ABA service delivery. RBTs are responsible for balancing multiple responsibilities during sessions, including implementing treatment programs, collecting data, preparing materials, supporting transitions, and maintaining meaningful engagement with learners. Without intentional preparation and organization, valuable instructional opportunities can be missed. This professional development session focuses on practical strategies RBTs can use to improve preparation, organization, and time management before and during service delivery. Participants will be introduced to the RPPC framework (Review, Plan, Prepare, Clarify), which provides a structured approach to preparing for successful sessions. The session will also explore strategies for organizing instructional materials, anticipating learner needs, managing transitions, reducing unnecessary downtime, and maximizing meaningful learning opportunities. Emphasis will be placed on balancing efficiency with quality care, including maintaining treatment integrity, building rapport, respecting learner assent, and remaining responsive to individual client needs. Through practical examples, real-world scenarios, and guided reflection, participants will consider how their daily preparation and decision-making influence the quality and effectiveness of ABA services. Participants will leave with actionable strategies they can incorporate into their daily routines to become more prepared, purposeful, and intentional in their approach to service delivery.
