A Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) works under the supervision of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) to implement behavior intervention plans designed to help individuals with behavior challenges or developmental disabilities. Their responsibilities include providing direct one-on-one therapy, collecting data on client progress, and assisting with behavior assessments. RBTs often work in settings such as clinics, schools, or homes, and they play a crucial role in helping clients achieve their behavioral goals.

A behavior analyst specializes in understanding human behavior and uses that knowledge to develop strategies to help individuals improve their behavior and quality of life. They assess behavior patterns, identify problem areas, and design interventions based on principles of applied behavior analysis (ABA). Behavior analysts work with a variety of populations, including children with autism, individuals with developmental disabilities, and people with behavioral challenges in educational, clinical, or organizational settings. They collaborate with clients, families, and other professionals to implement effective behavior management plans and promote positive outcomes.
