About this listen

Part 13 (the last step) of the FBA Mini-Series!

You’ve got the plan… now let’s make sure it actually works. In this final episode of our FBA Mini-Series, Audra and Sami walk you through how to track behavior data, define roles, build fidelity, and make sure your BIP stays meaningful. This is the wrap-up you didn’t know you needed, filled with practical ways to follow through on everything you’ve created!

🔑 Key Takeaways
🧠 Track what matters – Collect data on both the target and replacement behaviors
📈 Keep it doable – Simple, regular data is better than complex forms no one uses
🧍‍♀️ Assign clear roles – Know who is collecting what, when, and how
🔍 Check fidelity – Use plan-specific and general fidelity checklists to stay on track
💬 Share updates – Include teachers and families in celebrations and progress
🎯 Define mastery – Know when the plan has “worked” and what comes next
♻️ Keep it alive – BIPs should be living documents that evolve with the student
