Choosing your exam year: 2025 or 2026

You can sign up today and choose the route that matches when you plan to sit the RBT exam.

• If you will sit the exam in 2025 (Task List 2.0): complete Modules 1–10. When you upgrade and pass the Course Review, your certificate* will confirm you met the 2025 training requirements.
• If you will sit the exam in 2026 or later (new training requirements): complete Modules 1–10 plus Module 11. When you upgrade and pass the Course Review, your certificate* will confirm you met the 2026 training requirements. Module 11 covers the added areas needed for 2026, not already covered earlier in the course.

Need a certificate for the RBT exam? Upgrade when you’re ready

The free course gives you all the training. The BACB requires a specific course-completion certificate before you apply for the exam. When you’re ready, upgrade to the RBT Certification Pack for $69. It includes:

• A formal Course Completion Review which provides access to a BACB-compliant training certificate* (2025 or 2026 wording, depending on whether you completed Module 11)
• A downloadable RBT Study Guide
• A Mini Revision Course
• Up to 20 full-length practice exams

If you already know you want to become an RBT, you can purchase the Certification Pack now; you’ll be auto-enrolled in the free 40-hour course.

Supporting a team? 10-Licence Certification Pack

For supervisors and managers training multiple staff:

• Pay a reduced upgrade fee and only assign licences when staff complete the training
• Avoid wasted spend on unfinished courses
• Assign certificates only to staff who pass the review
• Every certificate undergoes a manual compliance check against BACB rules

Ideal for ABA providers, schools, and organisations that need scale without compromising quality or compliance.

*Important to know

• Certificates are issued after a manual review confirms you completed the entire course independently, in your own words, within 180 days of starting.
• Certificates are issued by Jigsaw Training only; employers or supervisors cannot issue certificates based on this course.
• Your certificate will state whether you met the 2025 training requirements (Modules 1–10) or the 2026 training requirements (Modules 1–10 plus Module 11).

Start learning today for free. When you’re ready to certify — whether under the 2025 route or the 2026 route — we’ll help you get there
