What are the benefits to becoming an RBT?

Becoming a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) allows you to distinguish yourself from your peers in the mental health field and qualify you for jobs that require an RBT credential. For context, there are currently around 2.74 million people in the US workforce who hold a B.A. in Psychology, according to Data USA. Despite the surplus of psychology majors, only 26.7% of recent graduates work in jobs “closely related” to their field of study.

Whether you’re still in school or have years of work experience in the mental health field, earning your RBT can help open new doors and create opportunities to uplift members of your local community. What’s more, your RBT credential can follow you anywhere but needs to be renewed every year. So, whether you’re planning to settle down or move to a different state in the future, your RBT will continue to be relevant to employers and clients alike.

How It Works

Step 1

Meet the Eligibility Requirements

To become an RBT, you must:

  • Be at least 18 years old.
  • Have a high school diploma or equivalent.
  • Pass a background check (often conducted by your employer).

Step 2

Complete the 40-Hour RBT Training

Enroll in an RBT training course that meets BACB requirements.

The training can be completed online or in person and covers key principles of Análisis de comportamiento aplicado (ABA).

Training must be completed within 180 days (about six months).

Step 3

Find a BCBA Supervisor for Competency Exam

You must complete an RBT Competency Assessment under the supervision of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA).

The BCBA will evaluate your ability to apply ABA techniques in real-world scenarios.

Step 4

Apply for the RBT Certification

Create an account on the BACB website and submit your application.

Pay the application fee (usually around $50).

Ensure you meet all documentation requirements.

Step 5

Pass the RBT
Exam

After BACB approves your application, you’ll receive authorization to schedule the RBT exam through Pearson VUE.

The exam is a multiple-choice test based on ABA principles y behavior intervention strategies.

Step 6

Maintain Your RBT Certification

Work under ongoing supervision from a BCBA. Follow ethics guidelines set by BACB.

Complete yearly renewal requirements, including a renewal application and competency assessment.
