Behavior Analysis Essentials: A 40-Hour RBT® Training

Online RBT Training

The Registered Behavior Technician^® (RBT^®) is a paraprofessional who practices under the close, ongoing supervision of a BCBA, BCaBA or FL-CBA. The RBT is primarily responsible for the direct implementation of behavior-analytic services. RBTs shares the same role as ABA technicians; however, they carry the RBT credential, which is a nationally recognized professional credential that requires more extensive training.

Benefits to becoming a Registered Behavior Technician include:

Greater job satisfaction enriching the lives of those who need your help
Opportunity to advance your career without having to earn a college degree
Enhanced understanding of the professional practice and principles of applied behavior analysis
