We see this question A LOT! "What can I do with a degree in behavior analysis other than clinical work?" The answer is simple - A LOT! The process to get there can be unknown and uncertain though. Today we are talking about some related fields and how to get into them. 

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.

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?).

Kelly Therrien, a seasoned consultant, and behavior analyst says to start small and she offers a few suggestions.
