Description
Behavior Technicians at Awaken ABA provide direct 1:1 behavioral intervention to our clients under the supervision of a BCBA.

Behavior technicians are responsible for the direct implementation of skill acquisition and behavior reduction plans developed by the BCBA. The behavior technician will collect and record data for analysis by the BCBA but are not responsible for the designing of interventions, conducting in-depth assessments, or developing skill acquisition or behavior reduction plans. It is the responsibility of the supervising BCBA to determine which tasks a behavior technician may perform as a function of his or her training, experience, and competence, as the BCBA supervisor is ultimately responsible for the work performed by the behavior technician.
