There is a

information is taken from the
BACB website (www.bacb.com) under "Become Certified"
under "eligibility standards". More information is also
provided in the online BACB newsletter at http://www.bacb.com/newsletter/page2.html
OPTION 3:
DOCTORATE/BCBA REVIEW OPTION
1.
Doctorate Degree: The applicant must have a doctoral
degree, conferred at least ten (10) years prior to applying. The
field of study must be behavior analysis, psychology, education
or another related field (doctoral degrees in related fields are
subject to BACB approval).
2. BCBA Review:
The applicant must have 10 years post-doctoral experience in
behavior analysis. Experience must be verified independently by
three Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and supported by
information provided on the applicant’s CV (curriculum vitae).
Applicants who are unable to obtain three BCBAs familiar with
their experience may contact the BACB directly (christine@bacb.com)
