Pivotal Response Training example (2:19)
This clip illustrates PRT with a child at different stages. It is an example, not a prediction of another learner’s progress. An RBT implements trained procedures under supervision and does not independently select or adapt interventions.
Conversation with FRED
You can discuss an example of a cusp or pivotal behavior and identify observations to share with your supervisor.
Your reflection
Write 100-500 words in your own words, in any language. Focus on what you learned and how it relates to your role as an RBT. Grammar and spelling are not graded.
If you use AI to brainstorm or improve your wording, keep the reflection personal and briefly state how you used it.
If you submit early by mistake, email your completed reflection to connect@jigsawconnects.co.uk so we can add it to your course record.
