- At Esperanza Behavioral Health, our behavior technicians are professionals who have within 90 days of hire completed a minimum of a 40-hour intensive training in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), have successfully passed a competency assessment administered by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), and go on to receive a passing score on the Registered Behavior Technician exam through the Behavior Analyst Certification Board in order to become a Registered Behavior Technician.
- All behavior technicians are continually supervised by an agency BCBA on a weekly or bi-weekly basis and engage in behavior analytic professional development activities.
- Behavior technicians are responsible for the direct implementation of skill-acquisition and behavior-reduction plans developed by the BCBA. The behavior technician may also collect data and conduct certain types of assessments (e.g., stimulus preference assessments) under the supervision of a BCBA. The behavior technician is not responsible for the designing of interventions, conducting in-depth assessments, or developing skill acquisition or behavior reduction plans.
- It is the responsibility of the designated BCBA supervisor of the behavior technician to determine which tasks a behavior technician may perform as a function of his or her training, experience, and competence.
- Reports to: Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and Behavior Consultant (MLP)
