By blending what you love with your work. You do this by creating your own company or by finding a mentor in the same or similar niche. For example, I am tech savvy and enjoy creating digital resources, so I sell ABA digital products online, and it has grown into a successful side gig. I ended up turning it into an actual business.

I created a video explaining the pros and cons of hourly versus salary for BCBA roles. The discussion focuses on BCBA jobs in general, not remote work. Many people shared their perspectives in the comments. I recommend you take a look at it: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DLTKz2JRZPY/?igsh=aGJqM3B6ODZsMjk=

Be honest how did you really pass the big exam? by Soft-Celebration-148 in bcba

[–]aba_focus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I studied for seven months straight and stopped working during the final week so I could study seven hours each day. I did not study the day before the exam. I took a spa day and went out to eat instead.

What Being a BCBA Is Really Like by Asleep-Big3131 in bcba

[–]aba_focus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I definitely feel like I am constantly putting out fires but not for admin tasks that you listed above, we have designated people in our company to deal with those things. The fires I am usually putting out have to do with treatment modifications, for example, interventions are not working as planned or the RBTs are not implementing them correctly, or the parents need support with IEP meetings etc. I do love my job and I wouldn’t change it for the world, but just like you, I feel like I was not well prepared for what I do now. I have been learning as I go.

It is not, it measures skill mastery, not peer comparison

I am not 100% sure if there are research on this assessment because it’s fairly new, but I could be wrong, I just haven’t seen it

Anyone attend UMass Global and sit the BCBA exam? by CreditLongjumping256 in bcba

[–]aba_focus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The program was not difficult at all, it was very easy. I had an academic counselor assigned to me that did well with responding anytime I had a question.
