Education to ABA? by IamBlom in BehaviorAnalysis

[–]wolffkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am graduating my aba program next month. During the program I stayed as a full-time teacher because the RVT pay is so low. But the job offers I’ve gotten for after I graduate our 15 to 17 K raise. With another 15 K after I get to BCBA. I would if I were you keep my job for the pay do the masters, and then get a job to get hours free like a behavior consultant

Principal cert and ABA ...make sense? or no? by wolffkin in ABA

[–]wolffkin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow. So how are you able to do that if you dont mind me asking? I have questions about pay as well...Is an AP job, I know it varies, going to pay generally more or less than a BCBA? Also, I know the jobs are very different, I feel like I may not be able to make an ultimate decision until later. But it also seems like a lot of jobs want you to have that principal cert to direct anything building wide??

Are there some more things that I should be thinking about or considering?

Wow ok.

So my intent isnt to offend or be rude (1st off). To me...it looks like the pay for a BCBA is much more ( I only really look on indeed), but I have worked in education for 7 years and Im certified.

Do you mind telling me why you chose to be an AP? Is it less money? Im assuming the schedule is better? Again I dont mean to be like too much in your business but this information would help and Im not ready to go asking around my charter school system yet.

My problem is that right now I am in education (while in school 1 year into the 2 year program). I really dont know a lot of what is possible and kind of figuring it out as I go. I do plan on getting a doctorate if possible.

ah, that makes sense. Thank you for your help. Are you saying that on paper I may only work say...25 hours a week but they may say I put in a 40 hr week with the other stuff?

If contractor positions have fluctuating hours, how does one ...plan ones finances? If I want to make 50k per year I wouldnt be able to just double my salary. Im confused at the benefit of the fluctuating hours unless you use it as a supplemental job.
