Registered Behavior Technician Training this Summer

Based on the Competencies for the RBT Credential of the Behavior Analyst Certification Board

The VT-HEC will again offer a training based on the Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) certification of the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB).  The training is designed for paraprofessionals, and others desiring these competencies, working in education, mental health and related fields.

This training will provide an excellent foundation of the knowledge and skills needed to implement behavior and education intervention plans. The course is designed to give paraprofessionals the background and basic skills necessary to implement a plan designed by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), Board Certified Assistant Behavior Analyst (BCaBA) or appropriately trained behavior specialist or professional educator.

This offering will meet the RBT training course requirements and will cover all of the competencies set by the BACB. The training will be offered by fully certified BCBAs on July 25, 26, 27, 30, 31 & August 1, 2018 in Montpelier, VT.

This offering is not an official course of the BACB but is based on their RBT competencies. Additional supervision and successful completion of the RBT exam is required to be officially awarded the RBT credential through the BACB.
