What is a Registered Behavior Technician?

RBTs are front-line professionals trained to deliver Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy—a science-based approach that helps children with autism and related diagnoses build communication, social, and daily-living skills. Working under the guidance of a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), you’ll turn carefully designed treatment plans into real-world progress for the children and families we serve.
