What You’ll Earn:

• $24.00 - $34.00 per hour, depending on your experience and certifications

Day in the life as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT)

Under the supervision of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), you’ll engage in rewarding healthcare work, implementing behavior plans, collecting data, and supporting clients' skill development. You’ll collaborate with caregivers as a team to address clients' needs and maintain accurate documentation, all while demonstrating empathy and patience. This role involves supporting clients through various activities, including potty training and managing mild to moderate behaviors. It's a role where every day brings new challenges and smiles- definitely good for those who like to roll up their sleeves, play, educate, and change the future of a life one session at a time.

Why Move Up ABA Stands Out

• Extensive Training and Support: We’ve got you covered with comprehensive training to become a RBT that goes beyond the certification.

• Collaborative Environment: Grow and learn from supportive BCBAs in a setting that values consistent mentorship.

• Compassionate Placements: Thoughtful placements that align with your initial skill set, and continued training to expand your scope of competency to increase placement opportunities.

• Safety: We prepare you with certification to safely address any unpredictable client behavior to protect all individuals.

Qualifications

• High School Diploma (or equivalent) required

• Minimum 18 years of age

• Valid driver’s license, auto insurance, and reliable transportation

• Patient, compassionate, and driven to help autistic children achieve their individualized goals

• Experience flexing your approach with children through connection and engagement

• Capable of working independently and thriving in a feedback-driven environment

• Ability to stand, sit, run, lift up to 30 lbs and perform CPR if necessary

• Able to commit to scheduled sessions and locations consistently for a minimum of six months post-placement.

• Completion or proof of completion of the 40-Hour RBT course (or ability to complete this training and take the exam within 60 days of hire)
