Meaningful Work. A Workplace You'll Enjoy.

At Childhood Autism Services (CAS), we believe you shouldn't have to choose between doing work that matters and enjoying where you work.

Our clinics are busy, active places where you'll find children learning new skills, employees celebrating successes, coworkers helping one another through challenging moments, and plenty of laughter along the way. We take our responsibility to the children and families we serve seriously, while working just as intentionally to create a positive, supportive environment for the people who care for them.

CAS has been serving children with autism and their families in the Omaha area since 2011. We use the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to help children build communication, social, play, daily living, and other meaningful skills that can make a difference throughout their lives.

This work requires patience, consistency, reliability, and a willingness to learn. Our RBTs spend their days actively engaged with children-not sitting behind a desk-and no two days look exactly the same.

Here, you can do work you're proud of, be part of a team that supports you, continue learning and growing, and have some fun along the way.

What Does an RBT Do?

Registered Behavior Technicians (RBT) work one-on-one with children with autism under the direction and supervision of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA).

You might spend part of your day helping a child learn to communicate what they want, practice taking turns, complete a daily routine, tolerate something that is difficult for them, or develop greater independence. Learning may happen at a table, on the floor, through a game, during play, or while practicing everyday activities.

You will follow an individualized treatment plan developed for each child and collect data so the clinical team can evaluate progress and make treatment decisions.

Some days will be exciting and full of successes. Other days will require patience, flexibility, and teamwork. You will not be expected to figure those challenging moments out alone. Our BCBAs and clinical team are there to teach, coach, answer questions, and support you.

Who Are We Looking For?

Experience in ABA is great, and we especially welcome applicants who already hold their RBT certification-but you do not have to be an RBT to apply. We are willing to train the right person.

Some of the most important qualities for this job can't be taught in a training course. We are looking for people who are:

• Dependable and ready to work when children and teammates are counting on them


• Patient, compassionate, and genuinely enjoy working with children


• Comfortable being active, playful, and engaged throughout the day


• Able to accept coaching and feedback and put it into practice


• Professional and respectful with children, families, and coworkers


• Team-oriented and willing to step in when someone needs help


• Interested in learning and growing


• Able to have fun while understanding the responsibility that comes with providing care to a child with autism

Compensation & RBT Training

Already RBT Certified?

Certified RBTs start at $22–$24 per hour, based on relevant ABA experience, qualifications, and education.

Not Certified Yet?

We are willing to invest in and train the right person.

Employees hired into our RBT training program receive a $20 per hour training wage while completing the required training, competency assessment, and certification process. Hours during the training and certification period will vary based on scheduled training and other assigned activities and are not guaranteed at 30 hours per week until RBT certification is obtained.

CAS provides the required training and pays for your first RBT certification exam. If an additional exam attempt is needed, the employee is responsible for the exam fee.

Following an unsuccessful exam attempt, CAS will continue to provide reasonable training and support to help prepare the employee for the next attempt. Paid hours during this period will be limited to scheduled training, observation, meetings, and other work assigned by CAS. Independent study and preparation outside of scheduled work hours are not paid.

Once you obtain your RBT certification, your wage increases to $22 per hour, and you become eligible for CAS's 30-hour weekly guarantee.

Because RBT certification is required for the position, employees hired into the training program must successfully obtain their certification within three exam attempts to remain employed in the position.

Why CAS?

We believe employees provide their best care when they feel supported themselves. We work hard to maintain a workplace where people can ask questions, receive help, continue developing their skills, and enjoy the people they work alongside.

Full-time RBTs receive:

• A guaranteed minimum of 30 hours per week upon obtaining RBT certification


• Opportunities to increase hours through demonstrated performance, attendance, and reliability


• Monday–Friday schedule with no required nights or weekends


• Generous PTO that increases with length of employment


• Paid holiday benefits and additional company-provided time-off benefits


• Employer-paid life insurance and short-term disability


• Health, dental, vision, accident, and critical illness insurance options


• 401(k) retirement plan


• Ongoing training and support from our BCBA team


• Employee appreciation and recognition program


• Mileage and travel compensation when applicable


• Primarily clinic-based services, but services may be provided in the family's home or daycare


• Opportunities to continue learning and growing within the field of ABA

What You Need to Get Started

Applicants must:

• Meet employment eligibility requirements through E-Verify

Applicants who are not already RBT certified will receive 40+ hours of paid, on-site training as part of the process of preparing for the RBT competency assessment and certification exam. Training and certification-period hours may vary, with the 30-hour weekly guarantee beginning once RBT certification is obtained.

Physical Requirements & Work Environment

Working directly with children is an active job. RBTs must be able to perform the essential functions of the position, with or without reasonable accommodation. Depending on the needs of the children they serve, the work may include:

• Frequently standing, walking, bending, kneeling, crouching, and transitioning between the floor and standing


• Sitting and playing with children on the floor for periods of time


• Moving throughout the clinic and actively participating in play and learning activities


• Using hands and arms to assist with activities, materials, and implementation of treatment programs


• Responding promptly and safely when a child requires assistance or when challenging behavior occurs


• Maintaining awareness of and attending to a child throughout direct therapy sessions


• Working in an active environment that may include noise, movement, and changing levels of activity

CAS is committed to providing reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities in accordance with applicable law.

Is This the Right Job for You?

You don't have to come to CAS already knowing everything about ABA.

You do need to come ready to learn, ready to participate, and ready to be someone a child, family, and team can depend on.

We want people who can laugh with their coworkers, celebrate the small wins that are actually very big wins, accept feedback when something needs to improve, and understand the importance of showing up each day ready to give children their best.

If that sounds like the kind of work and the kind of team you've been looking for, we'd like to hear from you.

Apply today through our quick application and tell us a little about yourself.

It is necessary that all new hires clear the background check and drug test provided by CAS.
