Notes

How many hours do I need to accrue to fulfill BACB’s Supervised Experience requirements?

Per BACB, students must accrue 2000 hours under the 5th edition. A minimum of 20 hours and a maximum of 130 hours may be accrued per month. At least 5% of the fieldwork hours must be supervised.

(The supervisee will accumulate the required minimum of 20 hours and maximum of 130 hours per month to meet the total of 1500 hours (4th edition) OR 2000 hours (5th edition) needed to complete the BCBA supervised independent fieldwork requirement approximately within three years.) 

For more information about specific fieldwork criteria and examples of what would count as fieldwork hours as well as who qualifies as a supervisor, please visit:

BCBA FIELDWORK REQUIREMENTS

*** Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the BACB has an exception during this period to waive observation with a client (i.e.,"As of March 1, and until further notice, we will temporarily waive the “observation with a client” sub-requirement for trainees who do not have in-person access to clients and, thus, are only accruing unrestricted hours. As always, all unrestricted activities must relate to a specific client’s needs.

***We can offer supervision hours that fulfill BACB's supervision requirements, but please check your State's licensure requirements. Some states require BCBAs to obtain a state license after obtaining your BCBA certification.
