How do I become a BCBA in California?
BCBA certification is national, through the BACB: a master's degree or higher, behavior-analytic coursework, supervised fieldwork (2,000 hours, or 1,500 if concentrated), then the BCBA exam. The requirements change on January 1, 2027, so confirm the current version on bacb.com. Your state's rules come on top of that. California is not on the BACB's list of states that license behavior analysts, so Kern County agencies check your national BACB certification instead. RBTs and behavior technicians work under a supervising behavior analyst.
How do I catch BCBA cases in Bakersfield?
Cases change day to day. Create a free profile, keep alerts on and check your email and messages.
What does "NPI verified" mean for me?
Every agency on ABAcases is checked against the federal NPI registry, the national list of licensed healthcare providers. So the agency behind a case is a real ABA provider, not an anonymous post.
Is ABAcases free for BCBAs?
Yes. Providers do not pay to browse, apply, get case alerts, or use the ABA timesheet & payment tracker. We charge agencies, not the people doing the work.
