This brief provides considerations for conducting and implementing functional behavior assessments (FBA) and behavior intervention plans (BIPs) using virtual technology. There are many situations in which virtual FBA/BIP implementation may be necessary or desired. For example, virtual FBA/BIPs can support students attending schools in areas that may be difficult or cost-prohibitive to do all FBA/BIP related activities on site, such as remote or rural areas, or in situations where school policy limits outside visitors to the campus. There may also be some cases in which a student is unable to attend school for an extended period and require virtual instruction (e.g., due to illness or other conditions that prevent in-school attendance). The following considerations are reviewed: (1) five technological features that promote successful virtual FBA/BIPs, along with addressing challenges that may be encountered; and (2) five virtual adaptations for implementing FBA/BIP activities.
