The field of ABA has experienced significant changes over the past few years. With insurance reform as the primary driver, the mandatory requirement to have RBT credentialed staff providing direct care services for government and insurance funding has fundamentally changed the field as we know it.
In less than 3 years, the number of RBTs has grown from 0 to over 32,000! Even with this exponential growth, the field still needs over 150,000 RBTs just to meet current demand. Imagine what impact this is having on the job market!
This webinar will provide you with a glimpse into the changing landscape, including how RBTs fit into this global ABA, the significances of these changes, and the process of becoming a Registered Behavior Technician.
