They are committed to the ongoing education and development of these children and aim to provide a child-specific and family-centred programme for every client. Pathway to Learning is based in Northern Ireland as well as the Republic of Ireland and is committed to providing affordable Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) services to those that need it most. They are approved by The Caudwell Children's charity who provide grants to families towards the cost of ABA. They work directly with other professionals such as teachers, psychologists, occupational therapists (OTs) and speech and language therapists (SALTs) to ensure a consistent approach. They also provide skill assessment using the verbal behaviour milestones and placement programme (VB MAPP) as well as full functional assessments of challenging behaviours. They provide home or community training workshops on applied behaviour analysis (ABA), Verbal Behaviour Approach (VBA), Makaton, and autism awareness.
