Our curriculum is designed with the upcoming 5th edition BACB® task list in mind; however, the supervision experience will meet 4th edition standards as well.

Our hourly supervision rate is on par with other individuals offering distance supervision for behavior analysts, typically between $100-120 per supervision hour (only those hours in which we meet directly). This rate may be on the higher end of the market average; however, there are far fewer supervisors offering opportunities in OBM, and supervision pulls us away from OBM consulting work (which often pays three-times as much as what we charge our supervisees). Additionally, we encourage individuals seeking certification to discuss getting some monetary support from the organizations in which they work, who will ultimately benefit from gaining a BCBA and OBM practitioner.

Individual and group meetings will be held via Zoom, a free video conferencing platform. Our supervisors communicate extensively through email and via phone/text when necessary as well. File management will be taken care of through DropBox, or Google Drive when preferred. Note: While businesses do not require the same level of regulatory compliance as clinical practice (i.e. HIPAA or FERPA), we encourage our supervisees to protect client confidentiality exactly as if they were working clinically. We additionally maintain supervisee-supervisor confidentiality, as you are our clients as well. Therefore, the systems we use to conduct supervision will be selected to ensure confidentiality.

Absolutely! In fact, we have affiliates/clients in Australia, the UK, Switzerland, and more! We will want to ensure that we follow any laws or regulations of practice for your area, but we are open to (and have greatly enjoyed working with) international supervisees. Contact us today and we’ll see what we can do to meet your needs!

That's fine! You'll want to check out our For Professionals offerings for coaching and mentorship services instead, but your similar can be very similar to that of a supervisee if you choose. 

We highly recommend that you work for (or own) an organization that is familiar with the practice of OBM (the concept of “buy-in” and stakeholdering will be stressed early on in your experience). This is to ensure you are able to get the practice hours necessary to meet the BACB®'s requirements, and to also ensure you do not drop from the program due to financial hardship. However, we understand that this is not feasible for some, and that perhaps you will be seeking freelance OBM consulting experiences. An arrangement like this will need more planning, and may require more hours of supervision (and in turn increase the cost). 

You will need to:

• Have started your coursework towards BCBA certification (Documentation will need to be provided).
• Have an organization selected in which to do your practice.
• Have the support of senior management to practice OBM in their organization (We require a “sponsor” that we will contact regularly throughout the experience to ensure you are given the resources and opportunities necessary to achieve your goals).
• If you will be working in a clinical context as well, we require an ON SITE clinical supervisor. Exceptions may be made in rare cases.
• IMPORTANT: If you are planning to do OBM in human service settings, we HIGHLY prioritize individuals with 500 or more hours of clinical experience prior to working with us.
• Be prepared and willing to purchase readings and gain access to the Journal of Organizational Behavior Management. This can be done inexpensively through membership in the OBM Network.
• Have the necessary “tech savvy” to communicate regularly online and upload media and documents as requested.
• Be aware that for the BCBA exam, there may be information we cover only briefly that is specific to the test. You will need to get supplemental knowledge from your course sequence to ensure you are prepared for the exam.
