Job description

Our core values: Compassion. Partnership. Accessibility. Evidence-Based Practice. Integrity. Growth.
Step Ahead ABA is an equal opportunity employer. We recruit, develop, and retain talent from all backgrounds.
Job Description
Step Ahead ABA provides the 40-hour RBT training course free of charge, so you can become a Registered Behavior Technician and be hired onto our team at $23/hour or more. No prior ABA experience and no BACB number are needed to start.
THE STEP AHEAD GROWTH PATHWAY
The 40 hours is the only real hurdle between you and your RBT certification, and we cover it.
We give you the 40-hour training course at no cost. Work through it at your own pace, around whatever else you have on.
When you finish, you register with the BACB and sit the exam. Those registration and exam fees are yours; the course is on us.
Your certification comes through and you are eligible to take clients with us.
You join our Fast Track Placement pool, and we place from it as cases open — at $23/hour or more.
You are not on our payroll during the course. Pay starts once you are certified and placed.
WHAT YOU EARN ONCE YOU ARE CERTIFIED AND PLACED
Certified RBT pay reaches $23/hour in every state we serve, and $30/hour in Hawaii. The RBT Leveling System raises it further at every level after that. That is the reason the training is worth your time.
THE CERTIFIED RBT RATES, BY STATE
We publish the non-billable rate as well as the billable one, because that is the number people get surprised by elsewhere:
Hawaii: $30/hour billable, $16/hour non-billable
Indiana: $23/hour billable, $10/hour non-billable
North Carolina: $23/hour billable, $10/hour non-billable
Oklahoma: $23/hour billable, $10/hour non-billable
Virginia: $22-23/hour billable, $10/hour non-billable
Nebraska: $22-23/hour billable, $16/hour non-billable
Iowa: $21-23/hour billable, $10/hour non-billable
WHAT FAST TRACK PLACEMENT GETS YOU
Cases do not go public first. When a family is ready for an RBT, our placement team works Fast Track Placement before the case is posted anywhere. Once you are certified and in the pool:
You hear about a case days before it is advertised
You get first refusal on cases that match your area and your availability
You are matched on the schedule you already told us you can work
When several people could take a case, pool members are contacted first
New cases come in every week across all seven states we serve: Hawaii, Indiana, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Virginia, Nebraska and Iowa.
WHAT YOU NEED TO START
High school diploma or equivalent
Reliable transportation for when you are placed
Able to stay active and engaged in session
Genuine interest in working with autistic children
No certification, no BACB number and no prior ABA experience required
$23/hour and up, rising at every level of the RBT Leveling System
Paid non-billable time, at the per-state rate listed above
A BCBA assigned to every case before you start, with a real handoff
You pick your clients and set your own hours
A defined career path: RBT to Lead RBT to Trainer to BCaBA
Capella University partnership: discounted tuition and degree support, plus a BCBA pathway
Benefits at 40 hours a week
Step Ahead ABA is an equal opportunity employer and considers all qualified applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran status or disability status.
