UNLEASHING ANIMAL VOICES
A self-paced online course.

Welcome to a transformative journey designed to equip your pet with tools for effective communication, mutual understanding, and collaboration. This hybrid course introduces the B.A.A.R.C.™ Framework - which stands for Behavior Analytic Approach to Relational Communication. Unlike body language, B.A.A.R.C.™ empowers animals to express themselves through learned gestures, creating a robust system of communicative building blocks. These building blocks enable animals to generate varied and precise communication, fostering deeper interaction, and clarity from animals.

What You'll Learn

B.A.A.R.C.™ goes beyond body language, using gestures to ensure communication remains effective across different contexts. It empowers animals to create new ways to communicate, allowing them to actively shape their experiences and offer creative suggestions.

In this course, lessons start with simple foundations and progressively delve deeper into more advanced concepts. Here's what you’ll learn:

Phase 1: Introducing Communication

In this phase, you will learn a few simple exercises that you can begin right away to get your pet's generative communication up and running.

Joint Attention
Pointing
Generative Communication
Reverse Mimicry

Phase 2: Concepts, Verification & Troubleshooting

In this phase, you will learn how systems of building blocks can come together to generate communication, as well as how to select gestures, construct your model, and clarify meaning. You will also learn some strategies and concepts behind troubleshooting, and verifying the learner's intent and understanding of new communicative strategies.

Verbal Operants
Reinforcement in Communication
Modeling & Multiple Exemplar Training
Individual vs. Proxy Agency
Constructing Systems of Building Blocks
& So Much More...

Phase 3: B.A.A.R.C.™ in Behavior Modification

As a behavior consultant, I tend to focus on how we can use communication to help us solve behavior problems collaboratively with animals, to be more efficient and effective. In this phase, we will look at how and why we incorporate communication into this process and explore some example scenarios.

Proactive & Continuous Assessment
Testing Clarity & Intent
Response Effort
Biasing for Confirmation
How Agency Transforms Motivation
& So Much More

Phase 4: Expanding Repertoires of Communication

In this phase, you will learn how to expand on the repertoires of communication that you have already built to learn more about your pets and animals in all areas of their life. And how establishing collaborative communication unlocks the new frontier of learner-centered training.
