A Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) course is a training program that prepares individuals to work as paraprofessionals in the field of behavior analysis. The course covers topics such as the principles of behavior analysis, ethical and professional conduct, data collection, and behavior change procedures. The course also prepares individuals to take the RBT Competency Assessment and Exam, which are required to obtain the RBT certification from the Behavior Analysis Certification Board (BACB). The RBT certification is recognized nationally and internationally as a credential for providing behavior-analytic services under the supervision of a qualified behavior analyst.
