Specialties
Berkeley Training Associates specializes in clinical license exam preparation and continuing education for social workers and marriage and family therapists. Founded by Dr. Stan Taubman in 1977, BTA has assembled an outstanding team of mental health professionals and educators to develop the finest quality exam preparation and training materials available.
BTA is committed to excellence in clinical license exam preparation and behavioral health care practice. We support the knowledge and skill foundations of effective, efficient and ethical professional practice through quality training materials and services.
History
Established in 1977.
BTA associates have substantial direct practice experience in applying the clinical knowledge and skills we teach. Our license exam preparation materials, publications for clinical practice, and staff development programs draw heavily upon this extensive, community based, direct service experience. BTA does not take an academic approach to training, and we are not affiliated with any university.
The BTA approach is to prepare license exam candidates for the specific type and level of licensure used in their state. Our in-service training programs are specifically geared to address the regulatory, policy, procedural, and service delivery concerns of the host organization.
BTA is certified by the Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB) to provide workshops, seminars and self-study courses (CE Provider #ACE1010.) In California BTA is approved (Provider #PCE 114) by the California Board of Behavioral Sciences.
