Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) must have a minimum of two face-to- face supervision meetings per month with their supervisor, with at least one of these meetings being an individual session (one-on-one) between the RBT and the supervisor

. Key points about these meetings include:

• One meeting must involve direct observation of the RBT working with a client to provide real-time feedback on their techniques

• The other meeting should be at least 15 minutes long and can occur without the client present, focusing on discussing progress, challenges, and professional development

• These face-to-face contacts can be conducted in person or via video conferencing but must be real-time interactions

• The supervision must total at least 5% of the RBT’s monthly hours worked, with a minimum of 2 hours of supervision per month overall

This structure ensures that RBTs receive sufficient individualized guidance and feedback to maintain competent and ethical practice in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). In summary:

• Minimum face-to-face meetings per month: 2
• At least one meeting must be individual (one-on-one)
• One meeting must include direct observation of client work
• Total supervision hours: at least 5% of monthly hours worked, minimum 2 hours per month

These requirements are set by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB) and are standard across RBT supervision practices
