Upcoming Changes to BACB® RBT Requirements

Starting January 1, 2026, the BACB’s RBT certification examination will be based on the RBT Test Content Outline, 3rd edition.  By completing Florida Tech’s current 2nd edition course, in order to become certified, you must complete all steps required by the BACB no later than December 31, 2025. 

To learn more about the BACB's current and future requirements please visit their RBT page.  The 2026 standards are outlined in their December 2023 newsletter, linked at the top of their RBT page.
