What is a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT)?

Registered Behavior Technicians are in high demand right now and getting a recognized certification, designed by world-leading experts in the field, is a great way to advance your career.

‘Behavior Technician’ is an umbrella-term that encompasses roles such as applied behavior analysis (ABA) tutor, behavior-support work, ABA teaching assistant, behavior therapist and others.  It generally refers to professionals who, under the supervision of applied behavior analysts and assistant applied behavior analysts, implement treatment ABA plans.

Behavior Technicians work within Education, Health and Social Care, typically supporting autistic people and people with intellectual disabilities or behavior that challenges. However, many people who work in these roles are unlicensed and unregulated.

A Registered Behavior Technician has achieved mastery of the content that meets the Behavior Analyst Certification Board’s (BACB) standards. Their professional conduct is regulated by the BACB. The RBT credential is an industry-regulated certification in high demand by employers.

Testimonials

"The Jigsaw online RBT course has been a great addition to the training we can offer our staff both in refreshing existing skills and developing further essential knowledge. The four staff who completed the course all gained confidence and have been more effective in their ability to apply specific tactics and principles of ABA since completion of the RBT course; this has been evident in their verbal mediation data. I emphatically recommend this course to other training managers seeking to increase their team's expertise as Behavior Analysts."
Jackie Charnock
CABAS Master Teacher, Training and Development Consultant
"Doing the RBT training course has been really beneficial to me as it has provided me with the insight about ABA techniques. This has made understanding why we do certain things and following certain procedures much simpler and has made things link together to make much more sense. I have also found it very manageable to take on the course during my internship as 6 months allowed me the time to pass probation, do the course, then have 3 months left to focus on assessments."

Who Will Need RBT Certification?

Having an internationally-recognized evidence-based RBT certification will help you stand out from other candidates in your field of work.

Jigsaw’s RBT course covers all the topics in the BACB’s RBT criteria so you can be sure your course is comprehensive and gives you all the knowledge you need.

In several states, an RBT credential is a prerequisite to employment in some roles. In other states, employers (e.g., schools, clinics, welfare services) may have internal policies that require staff to attain RBT certification.  Gaining your certification after completing Jigsaw Training’s RBT course will give you the best possible chance of landing the job you really want.

RBT training is also a great mid-level introduction to Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), suitable for other professionals including Speech and Language Pathologists/Therapists, Qualified Teachers and Occupational Therapists.
