Benchmark Behavioral Solutions is now a Certified Autism Center™ (CAC), a designation granted by the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES). The CAC designation is given to organizations whose staff have completed autism training and certification through IBCCES.
“Benchmark Behavioral Solutions provides effective ABA services to children with autism, their families, and their community. In the exceedingly growing field of autism treatment services, we felt that it was imperative to create a collaborative relationship with the IBCCES to share in our common vision of ensuring that service providers have the appropriate trainings specific to the treatment of autism,” said Chris Robakiewicz, Executive Director of Benchmark Behavioral Solutions.
Benchmark Behavioral Solutions provides a wide variety of services to support children with autism; including, direct supports, social skills groups, parent training, and family workshops. Direct support includes a one-to-one professional who works directly with your child with autism. Parent training includes consultation services provided by a BCBA to target specific skill areas in the home which the parents are having difficulty with. Workshops are offered to a group of families and provide teaching strategies on broad topics such as communication and potty training and can be done in person or virtually online.
For more than 20 years, IBCCES has been the industry leader in cognitive disorder training and certification for education, healthcare, and corporate professionals around the globe. IBCCES provides evidence-based training and certification programs created in conjunction with clinical experts and individuals with autism in order to provide professionals serving individuals with cognitive disorders a better understanding of what these disorders are, industry best practices, and the latest research in these areas.
“Our programs are designed to help professionals understand the varied perspectives and needs of individuals with autism and provide a multi-disciplinary background on best practices. We’re excited that the team at Benchmark Behavioral Solutions has taken this step to further their commitment to ongoing learning and quality of care,” said Myron Pincomb, IBCCES Board Chairman.
IBCCES also created CertifiedAutismCenter.com, as a free online resource for parents that lists certified locations and professionals. Each organization listed on the site has met Certified Autism Center™ (CAC) requirements.
