ABA TECHNICIAN COURSE

Preparation for ABAT (QABA) and IBT (IBAO)

Train as an ABA Technician

from the ground up and with rigor

40 hours of training in behavior analysis, with preparation for two certifications. Taught in Spanish by international faculty.

Is this for you?

Whether you already work in healthcare or education or are starting from scratch, the technician role is the gateway to behavior analysis. No prior experience is required: what you need is rigorous training that prepares you to practice with sound judgment and to become certified.

A university degree is not required for certification:

a completed secondary education (or its recognized equivalent) is sufficient

The ABAT (QABA) and IBT (IBAO) certifications are technician-level credentials that prepare holders to implement interventions under supervision. On their own, they do not qualify holders to practice independently as behavior analysts. The requirements of the certifying bodies do not replace the legal training and professional practice requirements of each country.
