What if your job actually changed lives?
If you are looking for a career that makes a real impact, this is your sign to take the first step.
The Bx Academy at C-H-S is training the next generation of behavioral health professionals—individuals who are passionate, driven, and ready to make a difference in the lives of children and families. Through our comprehensive career program, you will gain the skills, mentorship, and hands-on experience needed to begin a career in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT).
Why Choose a Career in Behavioral Health?
Every day, behavioral health professionals positively impact individuals with autism, developmental disabilities, and behavioral challenges. Working in this field is both rewarding and life-changing, offering opportunities for growth, stability, and purpose.
1. High Demand
The demand for ABA professionals, including Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs), is rapidly increasing. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), one in 36 children is diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). With this rising prevalence, skilled professionals are more essential than ever in helping children develop crucial life skills and independence. Enrolling in a career program that specializes in ABA therapy can give you a strong foundation in this growing field.
2. Meaningful Work
Unlike a traditional job, a career in behavioral health provides the opportunity to make a lasting impact. Every interaction and every session contributes to a child’s growth, helping them develop communication, social, and daily living skills. Seeing firsthand how your work improves lives makes this a uniquely fulfilling profession.
3. Opportunities for Career Growth
Becoming an RBT is just the beginning. Many professionals in the field continue their education and advance to become Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), clinical directors, or specialists in various areas of behavioral and mental health. The Bx Academy provides a strong foundation for long-term career success.
The Role of an RBT
A Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) plays a crucial role in supporting individuals with behavioral challenges, particularly those with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). As outlined by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB), RBTs are responsible for implementing behavior intervention plans developed by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs). They work directly with clients to improve social skills, communication, and adaptive behavior, making a significant impact on their clients' lives.
The importance of the RBT role is further emphasized by Connect 'n' Care ABA, which highlights how RBTs serve as the front-line practitioners in ABA therapy. Their hands-on work with clients is vital in helping individuals achieve their behavioral goals, offering both a rewarding experience and the opportunity to make a lasting difference in someone's life.
Additionally, Total Care ABA notes that becoming an RBT is an excellent entry point for those interested in a career in behavioral health. The role provides valuable experience and serves as a stepping stone for further professional development, such as becoming a BCBA.
