I'm pursuing an RBT certification here in FL as well, but I've had no luck finding supervision for the initial competency assessment, etc... I reached out to two BCBAs on the BACB website and also an actual agency (I personally spoke with the program director), but I haven't heard back from them :/ I'm not discouraged or anything, it's just that I wish these people knew how bad I want to do this. I'll keep looking and knocking on some more doors 'till I "make it". Keep those videos coming, you inspire us all!!

I’m very grateful for your help and encouragement. I hope my agency treats me well.

It’s just the beginning, and I can’t wait to see where I am in a year from now. Once again, thank you!!, and keep on inspiring more of us to join this amazing field. Stay safe!

    Hi! I stumbled across your channel while researching RBT training! I just started my 40 hour training and have been watching all of your videos! In your "How to become a RBT" video you mentioned how you need to have a supervisor before you can take the exam. Do you need 5% supervised hours while you work in the field as an RBT? I am assuming your supervisor works for a different agency and you go to them? Do you continue to pay a supervisor every month while you work as an RBT? Sorry I'm confused! Thanks!

    Hi! I was super confused too when I was where you are so don't worry haha. Do you need a supervisor while working in the field? The answer is yes, you should not have to pay for them as you will be working under them in the same agency not a different one. You pay for a supervisor (if you don't already have a supervisor which is the majority of us) before sitting for the RBT exam because you need to be registered under one in order to take it . You can also pay for an additional supervisor than just the one you work with if you are trying to accumulate hours at a faster pace to sit for your BCaBA. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching!

    Good evening Linda, how are you? I am so bless to come across your blog. I am interested in becoming a BCABA, but I am confused because of the other titles that comes along with it such as ABA, RBT, BACB. I’ve earn a BA degree in Criminology. My Question is, What is the first step? & Did u have to earn all these certifications RBT, ABA, etc.?

    Hi, ABA is a short term for the field Applied Behavioral Analysis. RBT is a registered behavior technician which a certification through the BACB to work in the field of ABA. The BACB is the Behavior Analyst Certification Board which is where you will find all your information related to the ABA field. Hope this helps.

    Question! I have a bachelor's degree in another field, but I want to take some Verified Course Sequences from a university to take the BCaBA exam. I see that 6 courses in this university are qualified for VCS. After I finish these 6 courses, am I gonna be qualified to take the BCaBA exam, even though, I do NOT graduate from this university? Or, do I have to graduate and get another bachelor's degree from this university offering Verified Course Sequences to be qualified for the exam? I am little confused. I really hope to hear from you, and thanks in advance. :)

    RBT would be considered step/role #1, GED or HS diploma required but please know that this role is very important. Consider it like a doctor (BCBA); nurse (BCaBa) and the daily hospital room nurse aide (RBT) that check vitals, assure patient eats and is daily doing well is the essential individual. BCBA requires grad school, BCaBA may be an undergraduate. ABA should be considered a practice of teach , assessing and considering behaviors and the person’s condition in their environment.
