Imagine you have just received your certification and are taking on your first trainee within your organization who is working towards certification. Based on the BACB guidelines and the Ethics code, and this week’s lecture, create a task analysis that you will follow to set up the supervisory relationship prior to your first supervision meeting with this trainee. What things must be in place before you begin? Are there any conditions under which will you not proceed with the supervisory relationship?
The assigned reading is chapter 2 in our text; therefore, please be sure to include this as a reference, in addition to at least one independently sources peer-reviewed article.
Remember to review the Reflection Paper rubric and instructions for reviewing a peer’s submission in the Important Course Information module.
Additionally, please include LINKS or DOIs to any articles or books referenced outside of the assigned readings as part of your APA citation (). Failing to do so will result in point deductions.

**My professor is emphasizing three important things for full credit:
- APA 7th edition formatting
- Using Chapter 2 from the assigned textbook
- Including at least one outside peer-reviewed source with a DOI or link
For APA guidance, you can use which includes examples for references, in-text citations, headings, and formatting.
For ethics code citations in APA 7th edition, the BACB code should be formatted as a report/document citation.
my reference list for this assignment could look similar to this:

A few things that will help you score higher on the rubric:
- Use headings and organized paragraphs.
- Mention specific BACB ethics responsibilities related to supervision.
- Include application, not only summary.
- Use professional language but make it sound personal and reflective.
- Avoid overly robotic wording because the rubric specifically mentions originality.
The BACB ethics materials and supervision requirements are available directly through and .
**Please Do not use IA or humanize the response
