What is a PBS RBT?

PBS RBTs are Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) who work within Positive Behavior Support (PBS) frameworks to help individuals, often children with autism or developmental disabilities, develop positive behaviors and reduce challenging ones. They implement behavior intervention plans designed by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs), collect data, and work closely with families and other professionals. PBS RBTs use evidence-based techniques rooted in applied behavior analysis (ABA) to promote skill acquisition and improve quality of life. Their role is hands-on, focusing on direct support and ongoing monitoring of progress.
