About this role
Centria's Elevate Program offers a structured path for aspiring BCBAs to earn supervision hours while working as a behavior technician in a paid, full-time role. You'll deliver 1:1 ABA therapy in home, center, and school settings across six clinical domains—assessment, intervention, communication, documentation, program design, and ethics—while receiving regular supervision from experienced BCBAs and building hands-on experience with children and families.
The role is designed to grow with you through three defined stages (Emerge, Empower, Ascend), each with clear milestones, competency benchmarks, and wage increases from a $18–$23 base. Both restricted and unrestricted fieldwork hours count toward your BCBA requirements, and the program emphasizes assent-based, client-led care alongside data-driven practice. You'll have access to mentorship, professional development sessions, and a peer network within the organization.
This is a fit if you're actively enrolled in or have completed a master's-level ABA program and are committed to pursuing BCBA certification. The position requires full-time availability, including afternoon and early evening hours. Upon graduation from Elevate, you'll have a clear internal pathway to a BCBA role, plus access to up to $20,000 in post-certification tuition reimbursement, along with standard benefits including medical, dental, vision, PTO, 401(k) matching, and recognition rewards.
