Registered Behavior Technician (ONLINE)
Continuing Education Registration Form
The Registered Behavior Technician training is for educators, parents or other professionals who would like to learn evidence-based Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) principles and strategies for helping clients or family members with developmental behavior challenges. Individuals looking to work as special education teachers, childcare administrators, reading specialists, occupational therapists, school psychologists, or speech-language pathologists would benefit from completing the training.
RBTs provide behavioral interventions in home, community, and school settings and use interventions to teach communication, social, and daily living skills and reduce problematic behaviors. They provide (ABA) interventions that encourage socially acceptable replacement behaviors so clients can build and improve upon their communication, social interaction, and problem solving skills.
RBTs introduce the chosen behavioral interventions in clients’ home or school life and assist analysts with conducting behavior reduction, nurturing social skills, creating session notes, collecting progress data, and training clients’ caregivers.
This training program is based on the Registered Behavior Technician Task List and is designed to meet the 40-hour training requirement for the RBT credential. The program is offered independent of the BACB.
