• Pay ranges between $18 - $30 per hour.
• 15 - 35 hours a week (flexible).
• Having a degree or being close to earning one is preferable, but is not an issue with the right experience in ABA or a related field.
• Training is provided along with continuing education.
• We will pay for their registration after 90 days, if they want to earn it.
• We can start the right candidate within a few days, in most cases

We also have a need for Board Certified Behavior Analysts, but that position requires a Masters Degree.
