Melbourne, FL: ABA Technologies, Inc., in partnership with Florida Institute of Technology, is pleased to announce the launch of a new, entirely Spanish online RBT® (Registered Behavior Technician®) training: Esenciales RBT®: Entrenamiento del Técnico de Conducta Registrado® (BEHP1209). This course includes all 40 hours of training required by the BACB® in order to pursue the RBT® credential. In this training, students have the opportunity to practice skills specified on the RBT® Task List as well as elements of the Professional and Ethical Compliance Code.

As behavior analysts, we currently must renew our certification every two years by gaining a number of BACB CEUs—either 20 for BCaBAs or 32 for BCBAs. It is true that many professionals often get preoccupied with the day-to-day tasks in front of them: the tasks that have more immediate consequences. If they do not have time to attend conferences, they often end up trying to accrue most, or all, of their required CEUs immediately before the due date to renew their certification (fixed-interval pattern of responding, anyone?).
