Intensive Programs
Spend a few months in one of our cohort programs to deepen your knowledge, build a community of practice, get direct training and feedback from experts, and effectively implement what you learn. In the business world, opportunities to upskill are provided via coding bootcamps and accelerator programs - we see our intensive programs as similar experiences, but for teachers and behavior analysts!

What to Expect
Our intensive cohort programs are thoughtfully designed to produce results for you and the learners you serve. This is not your average online course or workshop series. Read about the key features of the Octave intensive program experience below.

Expert Led
We train in areas where we have extreme competence and clinical experience. And we design instruction meticulously and iteratively to be sure we get results (i.e., your learning).

Guest Speakers
We bring fresh perspectives to important conversations by inviting a number of leading experts in the field to provide guest presentations and panels to our cohort members.

Highly Interactive
If it's lecture, we'll send you a video to watch at your leisure. All live sessions include polls, check-ins, Q&A, and small-and large-group activities. We adjust and iterate as we go!

Skill Building
All of our intensive programs include activities designed to shape your skills with respect to implementation and build your verbal repertoire with the subject matter of the program.

Meaningful Assignments
You'll have many opportunities to try out applying what you learn in our programs to your real-life work with learners. This is a critically important part of the learning process.

Coaching and Feedback
Our team carefully reviews your work products and provides direct feedback to support your development. We provide ample opportunities to get your questions answered.
