Registered Behavior Technician (ONLINE)
Continuing Education Registration Form
Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) provide behavioral interventions in home, community, and school settings, and use them to improve communication, social interaction, and daily problem-solving skills in individuals with developmental behavior challenges.
Following the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), these given interventions encourage socially acceptable replacement behaviors. RBTs also assist Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) with conducting behavior reduction methods, nurturing social skills, creating session notes, collecting progress data, and training clients’ caregivers.
The Registered Behavior Technician program is for educators, parents or other professionals who would like to learn evidence-based ABA principles and strategies for helping clients or family members. Individuals looking to work as special education teachers, childcare administrators, reading specialists, occupational therapists, school psychologists, or speech-language pathologists can also utilize RBT training to supplement their skill sets.
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.
