Good to know
- The BACB requires the 40-hour training to take at least 5 days and no more than 180 days from start to finish. You have 1 year of access, so plan to finish within that 180-day window.
- All parts are open from day one. Quizzes can be retaken, so you can review until you are confident.
- After the training you still need an Initial Competency Assessment with a qualified assessor, background checks, BACB application approval and a passing RBT exam score. Part 8 walks you through each step.
- Want exam practice too? The RBT Certification Bundle adds the full exam prep program and 10 mock exams.
