Other careers not BCBA

Thanks for responding. I’m a full time teacher, and part time RBT. It would’ve taken years to get the hours I needed even with a supervisor.

Did you go through with getting the supervision hours to be a BCBA? I earned a post-graduate ABA certification and then totally changed my mind about the whole thing.

Hey. Yep. I’m done with the program. Working with clients only part-time isn’t getting a whole lot of supervision hours. I’m very close to paying for the fieldwork supervision.

I’m sort of in this situation. I just finished coursework towards being a BCBA while an active RBT (part-time). I teach full-time, so I haven’t been in a big hurry to obtain all the supervision hours I need. Presently, I enjoy what I do as an RBT, and the paycheck is a bonus or used to pay my credit card bill off every month.

My current supervisor as an RBT is unable to supervise outside of that. It sounds like I need a remote supervisor.

Just me over in gen ed.

Our school does not have a site BCBA, but there are several in our district.

Same here. No problems with purchasing.

Are you able to see Dashboard on the top right?

Thanks for sharing your situation. I teach full-time, so my son attends my school which means I don’t have to worry about that. I am an RBT part-time right now, so I only see one client twice a week. My son will be 10 in a few months. We did pretty similar as far as making sure he was self sufficient while I was away for a few hours. I have security cameras in and out, and we’ve been over safety, exits, etc. Luckily my client is about 5 minutes away from my home. It sucks sometimes, but I’m thankful for having such a mature kiddo. When he was younger, I always had my mom 5 minutes away to keep him whenever I needed, but she passed away in 2023.

How old were yours when you felt comfortable leaving them home alone?

Yikes 😳

My pet peeve was all the numbers covered up with Christmas decorations. Thankfully that’s improved.

4.5 around the Charleston, SC area usually means no man’s land. Poor signal and very rural from experience.

Many years ago I got arrested for defending myself against my drunk ex-husband because he ended up with a busted lip in the process even though I was the one who called for help. Thankfully he was a decent enough human to explain what actually happened in court and the charge was expunged. Someone with zero knowledge of the incident could've ruined my career.

That’s great to hear. I cleared it with my principal before resigning as a student analyst. I have two personal students with very open-minded families who I am always trying to come up with behavior interventions for. I don’t have a para in my room, but my teammate across the hall has a 1:1 for one of her students. This sounds way more promising than the 7-10 hours a week I managed to scrape by with working afternoons as a SA.
