RBT Test Prep

If you are planning to take the Registered Behavior Technician board exam and took the 40 Hr-RBT  course a while ago,  or feel that you could benefit from additional training to clarify doubts and increase your possibilities of passing the RBT exam, you can attend our prep courses.

Meet during (4) hours for two consecutive Saturdays and master the RBT task list. Test practice available.  Contact our office if you need additional information.

The 40-Hour RBT Training Course is based on the task list developed by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB) for Registered Behavior Technicians 2nd and 3rd editions. RBTs work under  the supervision of a BCBA, BCaBA or Fl –CBA and are primarily responsible for the implementation of behavior analytic services.

 

The RBT is a paraprofessional credential. RBTs are in high demand and frequently work in ABA clinics, schools, day treatment programs, residential homes/facilities, and community based programs among others. Opportunities are also available for behavior technicians in hospitals and other health settings.
