Our Therapists

Our therapists play a key role in the success of our agency. They work with our families and children in one-on-one, group, and school settings, and carry out program goals as identified by our supervisory team. All AP therapists go through a strict hiring process and have a minimum of 400 hours of training in the first year and receive intensive and ongoing training for about 200 hours every year thereafter by local and overseas experts in the field.

AP therapists are highly skilled and experienced and receive extensive support and training to perform their duties with passion and confidence. Training comes in many forms including: Intensive Training and Orientation: All new AP hires are required to complete 140 hours of orientation and training prior to implementing Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) with students. Training and orientation are in the form of lectures, case studies, role-play, case observations, and guided practical hands-on sessions. This training is conducted by our supervisors, consultants and directors. In addition, all therapists are required to attend monthly training sessions to further their knowledge and enhance skills. On-the-job training are both didactic and practical, consisting of lectures, case studies, videos, evaluations, and role-play. Our directors, Dr. Ronald Leaf, Dr. John McEachin, and Mr Toby Mountjoy also visits Singapore to provide direct training to staff. Weekly Supervision: AP therapists receive over 400 hours of induction training and 1:1 supervision by our supervisors, consultants and directors in their first year on the job. Thereafter, staff receive over 200 hours of supervision per year with weekly supervision, regular clinic and team meetings specific to the child they are working with. Weekly supervision allows us to monitor and evaluate the quality of our services, and track the progress of our students. Performance Evaluation: AP therapists are formally evaluated through supervision and review meetings with our directors on an ongoing basis. Evaluations are based on therapists’ practical skills, programming skills, work attitude, communication skills, organization skills as well as professionalism and leadership skills.
