How often should RBTs seek supervision according to BACB guidelines?

The BACB (Behavior Analyst Certification Board) guidelines specify that Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) should seek supervision at least once every two weeks. This requirement is designed to ensure that RBTs consistently receive guidance and support from a qualified supervisor. Frequent supervision helps to enhance the RBT's skills and knowledge, provide feedback on their practice, and ensure that they are working effectively with clients. Regular interactions with a supervisor also facilitate discussion about client progress, ethical decision-making, and any challenges the RBT may face in their role.

This bi-weekly supervision format ensures that RBTs maintain a high standard of professional practice while also allowing opportunities for growth and learning, which are essential components of delivering effective behavioral interventions.
