What steps should I take now to make myself a competitive candidate for the graduate programs I’ll need in order to continue my path toward becoming a BCBA?
I’ve been working in the field of ABA for several years, and throughout that time, I’ve grown from an RBT into someone who is deeply committed to advancing in this profession. My next major milestone is becoming a BCaBA, which is an important stepping‑stone in my long‑term goal of earning my BCBA. Graduate school is a crucial part of that journey, not just because it’s required, but because it will give me the advanced training, supervision, and academic foundation I need to provide high‑quality, ethical, and effective services to the clients and families I work with. I want to make sure I’m preparing myself now, academically and professionally, so that when I apply to graduate programs, I’m confident, competitive, and ready for the next stage of my career in behavior analysis.
Are there any careers out there that combine speech-language pathology (SLP) and applied behavior analysis (ABA) ?
I’m extremely interested in becoming an SLP out of my interest in improving the communicative/throat-related functional abilities of individuals with special needs, but I also have an interest in helping individuals with special needs have an overall better quality of life through applied behavior analysis. To my understanding, both occupations allow an individual to either work in a school or clinical setting, so if there are no careers that combine my two interests, can anyone give me insight on their experiences as either an SLP or ABA in either setting? Thank you! #career-path #SLP #ABA #SpecialNeeds
If I want to become a BCaBA or a BCBA, what steps would I need to take?
I currently work as a Behavioral Interventionist. Recently, I've grown an interest on maybe pursuing my graduate studies in Applied Behavior Analysis. What's the process to become a BCBA? How do you make your way up, etc? Thanks! #boardcertified #psychology #aba #behavior-analysis
