Crazy Thought
This is a total crazy thought, but let's indulge it just for a second. What if the BCBA exam is different depending on the person taking it? Is that really a zero percent possibility?

I’m a BCBA. I’m no longer working with a child and their family and all treatment and services have been ended. Am I allowed to continue a friendly relationship with the family now that I don’t provide them with, and won’t provide them with, ABA services? #ABA #BCBA #BACB #ethics #clinician

Hi, I’m looking into picking up some extra part time work doing remote in Missouri, I have had a few interviews for both part time and full time positions, looking to see what salaried positions looks like out there before I lowball myself. Thanks!

Diagnosed AuDHD BCaBA! How tf do we manage to keep organized and on track? Are you using timers on your phone? Staying up until 2 am to do things “after hours?” Checklists? I like automation so I’ve been building templates for things that I use commonly, but any tips and tricks that actually stick would be helpful.
Hi everyone, I am currently a BCBA for a non-public/alternative school and am considering making a switch to public schools. Has anyone made this switch? What was your experience?
Everything is taken care of in house at my current school, I see my behavioral students every day. If I switched to public it would be between multiple schools.
Thanks!

I'm just putting out some feelers and wanting confirmation on whether this whole thought process is a no-go. I'm transitioning away from a career in management in the tourism and resource interpretation field and am contemplating a pivot to another career with advancement potential. I've seen postings for Registered Behavior Technician positions, and am curious. While I recently completed a career pathway certificate in alcohol and drug counseling, my master's degree is in historic preservation, a field that has been absolutely gutted by the current administration. It appears that the Verified Course Sequence has been phased out, so do I now need to complete an entire master's degree if I'm ultimately looking at BCBA positions in a few years' time?
Is this pretty much guaranteeing me a job where I would be stuck making $20-25 an hour with no upward trajectory, or are there opportunities to have continuing education and job placement supported? I am in western Oregon, near Eugene. Brutal honesty would be appreciated here. I completely understand that behavioral fields are rife with burnout but am emotionally mature and resilient. Analysis and instruction is a core part of my current position, but it is becoming increasingly untenable to find work that offers compensation to support a household.

Hi y'all :) for those BCBAs that started taking on their own client, how did you find your very first client? I have a BT already and am thinking about the best way to find a client in need. Thanks for any responses

Hello! I was looking for recommendations of online master programs from former or current students who have passed their bcba exams.
A plus if they helped you with fieldwork hours
