information is taken from the
BACB website (www.bacb.com) under "Become Certified"
under "eligibility standards"
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).

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
