Looking for Unrestricted Hours Towards Your BCBA Programs?
Please go over conducting a FBA
I am a substitute teacher, I got to work with the sped kids also the behavioral interventionist at the school, I just recently took my RBT 40 hour course. I have a position waiting for me at a clinic for autistic children. I’m so happy where I am and where I came from. This journey has been part of my healing, when I was child I needed care like this. So to give back to the kids is such a pleasure!!
:45 she said lean in, I’m already leaning in 😂😂 I love this
Hello - would you make a video of the potential career advancement/opportunities after becoming BCBA please? What could be next
Thank you for this informations.
I am looking for a supervisor for my indirect fieldwork.
Yes please do a FA. Thank you for being so detailed.
You always give me hope. When I get burnt out from the field. ❤
Just doing my RBT training and in grad school for ABA. I can’t wait to write a behavior plan!
Yes, I would love a video on how to conduct a FA
Side note: You always look so goooood
This was so helpful! As someone who is just months from passing her exam, these are things that not every supervisor has the time to break down for us RBTs. Thank you so much!!!
I'm so glad I could help! Thank you for watching & subscribing
Thank you so much! I appreciate you ❤
You're very welcome! I hope it helped.Thanks for watching & subscribing
This is great! Im currently in Early Intervention and will be going back to grad school to become a BCBA. I would love for you to do a detailed video on conducting an FBA. THANKS!
You got it! I am always looking for feedback on my videos, so thank you for watching! I will add a video on FBA to my to-do list.
Passed!👌🏽 Thank you the video was very helpful
Yesssss!!! Best news I’ve received all week. Thanks for sharing and I’m glad this video was helpful.
Thanks so much for all these tips!! I am taking my competency sometime this week and felt a little unprepared because our training consisted of mostly long modules. This is so helpful 🤍
I’m glad I came across your channel. I’m currently an LPN and have been working with individuals with mental health and behavioral issues. I will be finishing my Bachelor degree in Behavioral Health and I was looking at the Master’s program in applied behavioral health at ASU. Thanks for the insight.
That’s awesome! Keep us posted on your journey and best of luck!
Dom, I LOVE your vids and have been following you since I was in grad school 😊 Do you have any tips for new BCBA’s that are trying to stay organized and how to maintain their caseload?? I have two streams of income and I want to know a better way how to juggle it all 😭
Thank you for watching and thank you for giving me my next video idea. It’s hard to get into the details without breaking HIPPA violations but feel free to checkout some of my day in the life videos to see how I actually juggle it all. th-cam.com/video/ruwSL4os2hs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=BVlUJBcv1XXHtQit

I FEEL SEEN
lol! We’ve all been there
Ma’am, where can I find a clinic of such stature?
lol, that depends on where you reside. Whenever I am looking for a new work location, I usually poll my ABA Facebook groups or ask around about the company’s work culture.
I need the certificate program i already have a master degree in education
That is awesome! You already have a master’s degree so you are on your way. What school did you have in mind?
Is Purdue Global a good University for Masters on ABA? Thank you!
I’ve only heard good things.
This video came right on time! I negotiated my salary and they came back a week later 10k more on my salary plus sign on bonus! This is very true I was so scared I neverrrrrr negotiate but I did this time around and it worked. I thought I was not going to get what I asked but it worked!
You did it! I love hearing that it worked out for you. ✨
I’ve seen multiple videos on rbt exam reviews and I have to say yours was the best one I’ve seen yet. You broke it down in such a simple and organized fashion. Thank you so much! I’m so appreciative!!
You're very welcome! I'm so glad it helped. & thank you for your feedback 🥰🥰. You just reinforced my ‘keep sharing’ behavior.
As a multi test taker, I am speaking this into existence!
Touching & agreeing with you
Ive had my RBT for 2 yrs. I worked for an agency making $40 /hr as a behavior para. They paid way more than the school! Then the school approached me about being a teacher, so now I'm a SPED teacher in Lifeskills. I also have a p/t job as an RBT 12hrs a week. I've loved the extra income. My BCBA is next after this Master's.
Anything below 90k is low balling. Masters degree, 3000 hours, and working with clients that can hurt you and put you in the hospital. 50-70k is teacher pay.
Hiii! I did not negotiate originally for my RBT position because I was so happy to work with kiddos and get back in game after gaining my masters in ABA all online. When a pay bump did come, I realized that they (the company) had the funds all along to make me a better offer but I did not know to ask for it! Now, as I continue forward, I will negotiate my salary and the benefits! I now believe that I am worth the investment. This missed opportunity pretty much cured me of imposter syndrome and feeling like I am not enough. Also! I loved the comment about knowing what others are paid, asking questions, and not being afraid of not getting the job! Take me or leave me, I will be okay because I am never stuck.❤❤❤
Take me or leave me! But I know my worth and I’m not changing it! 💕💕 I love that! Thanks for sharing your story
Love your channel!!!❤
Thanks for watching! 🥰
I think anything below 90k for the masters and certification is wild. Y'all gotta think about it this way: You are working with people that can hurt you. Adults and children. BCBA's have gone to the hospital working with clients. So you can get hurt at this job. 2. You are Highly specialized. They are asking for a degree, observation hours and certification. Doctors who paud minimum 100k have these standards. 3. Teachers are now getting paid 50-70k with just a bachelor's and a masters and passing a teaching test. The observation to become a teacher doenst compare to the observation needed to become a bcba. Anything below 90k for a bcba 2024 is low balling.
Thanks for sharing!
Love this video!!! So inspiring!!! I’m think about diversifying my career in ABA after watching this!😊
I’m waiting on the board to approve my application… I’m so nervous
I'm too slow to understand if you agree or disagree with the idea
I agree. It was a trend about posting an unpopular opinion, but not wanting to expose who posted it. A little bit of comedy mixed with a little bit of the tough stuff.
This is very true i am Nero divergent and I think the BACB should consider making the test a bit more simple
You say that.. I'm working on hours to become a bcba and working in the field made me believe I am on the spectrum.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I struggle with keeping focused when videos tend to be longer but you are engaging and there’s energy to your content that keeps me engaged. The information was clear and concise for me (after watching 4+ videos recommended to me by my organization) to absorb and feel confident enough to pass my competency exam.
You’re welcome! That’s what I’m here for. Please keep us posted on your journey & thanks for watching.
Thanks Dom!!!
You are very welcome! I hope it helped.
What were some of your study habits you used to help retain or fully comprehend the material and to get a better understanding of the terms and concepts
Flash cards, specifically SAFMEDS which means have a deck on index cards with the ABA terms on the front and definition on the back. See how many you can get correct in 1 min by looking at the terms and saying the definition. Do this multiple times per day. You can also purchase mock exams from Amazon.
So incredibly true! If you are not okay, then you can run yourself into the ground. We need breaks to help us recharge and get back into the game!!!❤❤❤
I need to set this intention daily!
Subscribed. Currently watching the video so my questions you may answer as the video goes along. 1)are you personally able to supervise for bcba hours for us? 2) may be a stupid question but do they also hire men for bcba? I’ve only ever met female bcba 3) when does the clock start for the 5 year timeframe on hours? Does it start with coursework start or the start of the hours? I assume the hours. 4) I’ll be doing vcs courses since I have a non related graduate degree already. 5) do you need to be rbt first 6) my girl is bcba certification and business owner Great video so far
Great video! I have negotiated my RBT pay. I used my experience for my rationale for why I deserved more. As a BCBA I did negotiate my salary and again used my experience to explain why I deserved more. I didn’t get my salary increase right away but I did get it after 90 days plus a bonus. I think my first time negotiating was hard but I role played it with my husband to build my confidence. I can say that I’m not afraid to negotiate and know my worth and my values. I’m also more comfortable asking others their salary, it shouldn’t be a scary conversation but an insightful one.
Thank you for sharing your experience! This is powerful stuff.
Watching this video made me realize that growth happens when we consistently take small actions, not when we wait for big breaks.
lol love it ❤❤❤
🥰🥰
It's her patiently waiting while pulling hair back 😂😂😂
Absolutely love your videos. Could you do one on ABA PhD programs as well? ❤️❤️
Thank you for your videos! Could you make a video on what a BCaBA is and the difference between BCBA?
Too funny!
No pushing daddy 😂
Can you please make a video on creating examples of behavior plans? Thank you so much for posting your content 😊
Sure can! ✨Thanks for the feedback.
Again, thank you for sharing your experience. I’m still in school and seeking to plan ahead before going into the field. It is exciting that this field is growing and we are apart of it ❤
I love forward thinking. The field is ABA is grateful to have you. Please keep us posted on your journey.
I’m currently studying for my exam. Once I pass I have so many questions for you Dom! Thanks for the video. ❤
You got this! I hope to see you in the comments with your questions once you pass the exam.
