The New England Center for Children and University of Mary Washington Cooperative Learning Program includes both didactic course work and supervised practicum experiences. Trainees will learn theoretical and practical applications of behavior analysis techniques, how to develop educational curriculum and behavior management programs for students who have a range of needs. Trainees will attend two courses offered on-site by Northeastern University and Simmons College. These courses will count as electives within the psychological science department at UMW. Trainees will also spend about 30 hours each week gaining hands-on experience as student teachers. This experience will result in six internship credits.
