Career: Beh
Behavior analysts are professionals who study how people and animals learn and behave. They use principles of behavioral science to assess, interpret, and modify behavior, often working with individuals who have developmental disabilities, autism, or behavioral challenges. Their work involves creating treatment plans, conducting assessments, and working with families, schools, or organizations to improve behavioral outcomes. Behavior analysts typically hold certification, such as the Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) credential, and may work in clinical, educational, or research settings.
