Job Description

Spectrum Pride

Why People Choose to Work Here

No ABA experience required. New technicians complete 25–30 hours of hands-on clinical training, and experienced technicians complete 6–8 hours, before working with a client on their own.

Learn in real sessions. Training happens in live sessions alongside a Training Assistant, an experienced RBT who teaches our curriculum while working with clients.

A path to RBT certification. When certification is needed, we provide the 40-hour Registered Behavior Technician training through our own curriculum aligned with the BACB.

Your supervisor is there on day one. A supervisor joins your first session with every new client to introduce you and help you get started.

Frequent, hands-on coaching. Every client receives supervision equal to at least 20% of technician hours, most of it in person, so you get real-time feedback and support.

You're part of a team. Every client has at least two technicians, so you're never the only person carrying a case

Room to grow. Spectrum Pride offers growth into roles such as Training Assistant and Case Supervisor, and new Case Supervisors receive a gradual, supported ramp-up.
