"I absolutely love the ABA professional development program. The course is so informative as well as entertaining. Dr. Martinez-Diaz does an amazing job explaining the material and organizing the course so that someone such as myself, with little to no behavior analysis background, can be successful. As a full-time employee, I truly appreciate the flexibility that the online version has to offer."

Requirements are set by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board, Inc.® (BACB) and change periodically.
For a detailed description and for more information, please visit the official Web site of the BACB, www.bacb.com.
There are three basic requirements for certification in behavior analysis: a degree, approved or accepted instruction (classes) in behavior analysis and supervised experience. The type of degree, the instructional requirements and the amount of supervised experience required differs for each level. There are two levels of certification:
The BACB has approved Florida Tech’s two professional development course sequences as meeting the course work requirements for eligibility to take the Behavioral Analysis Certification Board exams.
The requirements to take the BCABA certification examination are lower than the requirements to take the BCBA examination. The pay and type of positions may differ depending on the agency and the state. The BACB strongly recommends that a BCABA work under the supervision of a BCBA and not independently. Some states adhere to this BACB recommendation while others have different stipulations depending on the type of client and/or specific practices.
