Description Positive Steps ABA, LLC is a small business in Melbourne, FL and have recently grown to include the Central Florida area! We are professional, creative and our goal is to create an environment that staff enjoys and feels comfortable learning and working in. A Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) is a credentialed paraprofessional who works one-on-one with people receiving Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy to implement their intervention plans.As an RBT, you won’t be designing or assessing these plans. Instead, you’ll be working under close, ongoing supervision from a Board Certified Behavior Analyst—a BCBA, BCaBA, or BCBA-D—to carry them out.
As an RBT, you will be using these ABA intervention strategies and others with students. Again, you won’t be responsible for selecting which ones to use—your supervisor will make those choices—but you will witness firsthand the often dramatic difference ABA strategies can make for children with physical and intellectual disabilities.
