About us

All people can learn when the principles of behavior analysis are put to work.

That idea is why Operant Teaching Technologies exists. We model exceptional Applied Behavior Analysis and build the skills of the teachers and therapists who serve our community.

Our mission

To teach others to use the science of ABA to build a better future for all people.

Our vision

A community where every child and adult with a disability can access high-quality ABA, delivered by teachers and therapists with the skills to provide it.

Why we exist

Closing the gap in quality care

A growing number of children and adults with disabilities in the Lehigh Valley can't access quality ABA services. Too often, a shortage of qualified providers forces families to accept a lower standard of care.

We answer that in two ways at once:

ModelDeliver exceptional ABA to the individuals we serve.
MultiplyBuild lasting capacity in local teachers and therapists.
