Hi, thank you for providing us with this information. I have a question that I cannot find clear information; Do you know if I can obtain my supervision hours working as a special education paraprofessional in a public school setting?
I started my BCBA path a couple years ago. I have a masters in special education and a bachelor’s in psychology. I attended a program that gave me the VCS classes that I needed. The program did not have supervision built into it so I worked as an RBT to get my supervision hours. It seems like it takes forever to get the hours you need working part-time. I work as a special ed teacher full-time but there isn’t a BCBA in my district that can provide me with supervision hours. Paying for a BCBA to supervise me is expensive. I feel lost
Does your RBT role offer supervision for free? Also I know if can feel like forever when only able to count a minimum number of hours. Maybe you can do more indirect hours. Since you will need more indirect than direct. Maybe also speak to the supervisor to come up with a plan to Maximize your hours.
Hello... First let me say congratulations to you on obtaining your BCBA... I'm currently looking into obtaining my BCBA and it just dosen't make sense ... so I have 2 Master's degree's one in Fine Arts and 1 in Criminology and a Minor in Law. My undergrad in in Criminology and a Minor in Behavioral Analysis ... But those credits are only good with a Masters Degree.... it won't apply with my undergrad.. However, aren't there 4 different paths to obtain this credential? At this point I believe getting the HOURS will be harder than taking the test. I'm definitely about to apply to be a RBT and I will try to reach them tomorrrow
This is a loaded response so I’m not sure on where to start or how to help. Overall you would need a masters that qualifies. There are a few ways to obtain the “hours (fieldwork)” but if you don’t have a qualifying degree you cannot obtain the hours. If you have a more specific question let me know and I’d be happy to help if I can
@@johnsonjohnson6323 when looking at the requirements the degrees I stated in the video were the once accepted. They may change it or have. I’d suggest checking out the site or sending them a direct inquiry
@@nandi.nelson can I ask how long it’s been since you got your bcba? When I look at their guidelines for pathway 3 it only says masters degree required from a qualifying institution. It doesn’t specify a degree. When u talked with the school they said aMSW will qualify.
@@reemnassir646 I believe I answered your question on IG. But others may have this question so I’ll answer here 😊. You need to have a masters to be eligible to become a bcba. So your bsw paired with a masters in one of the areas I referenced in the video will do
Im taking my exam this december, IF i fail for the exam will i be sitting for task list 6 or still task list 5??? (I hope i dont have to retake but yeah need to know lol)
Hey I would check the website I cannot recall off the top of my head with the 6th edition goes into effect. However, say if it is Jan then yes you would be tested off of that edition. Let’s not put that energy out there! You’ve got this

How would I find supervision/field training as a bcba instead of an RBT or would I need to start as a RBT?

Also, if you can, consider a job switch that will help you earn hours while on the job. Just another idea 🙏🏾

@@kpatter6 that’s a great idea put it may be tough for some financially since depending on the company the BT/rbt role can have inconsistent hours
Hello... I thought if you worked as a SPED teacher you could get hours from the district?
@@londonbridges3055Im needing to know this as well
I have a question! Does the master's degree and the coursework need to be from the same university?
It does not mines I’d from 2 different ones

Hi! The courses are like test or just information curses thanks
Courses are, classes, information and exams. It’s like a condensed “degree”.
Hi
I have Bachelors Degree in Sociology and Social work, I need master degree?
Yes you need a masters to be a bcba
@@nandi.nelson thanks
Hi, I am a RBT looking into BCBA. Can you tell me more about the other jobs I can receive or other populations I can work with?
@@ifywbdbPodcast I will do a video on this
Did they recently change the requirements again by allowing a social worker to get a bcba

@@johnsonjohnson6323 I been a bcba since 2015
@@johnsonjohnson6323 this is good news! I never understood why they changed it considering sw is a benefit
In my case I have a bachelor degree in social work, does that mean I'm not qualified to be a bcba?
