About Us
Comprehensive Learning Services is dedicated to providing high-quality applied behavior analysis (ABA) services to individuals and families in our community. Our team is passionate about making a meaningful difference through evidence-based, compassionate care. We are currently seeking a motivated and dedicated Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) to join our growing team.
Position Overview
This is a part-time, hourly position working 20 hours per week during afternoon hours. The ideal candidate will demonstrate strong clinical skills, a positive attitude, and a commitment to client success. Based on satisfactory performance, there is a clear pathway to transition into a full-time role.
Key Responsibilities
• Implement individualized ABA treatment plans under the supervision of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA)
• Collect accurate data on client behavior and skill acquisition, using patterns and clinical reasoning to inform practice
• Deliver direct therapy services to clients in a professional and compassionate manner
• Maintain clear and timely session notes and documentation
• Identify and communicate subtle antecedents, setting events, and motivating operations to the supervising BCBA
• Communicate effectively with supervisors, team members, and families — translating ABA concepts into accessible, jargon-free language
• Participate in supervision sessions prepared with targeted questions and relevant data
• Support and model professional behavior for junior staff members
• Adhere to BACB ethics code in practice, and proactively flag concerns related to treatment integrity, assent, or client safety
What We're Looking For
We take pride in building a team of clinically strong, emotionally mature, and ethically grounded RBTs. The qualities below are what distinguish a great fit at Comprehensive Learning Services:
1. Clinical Mindset
• Thinks in functions, patterns, and data — not just procedures
• Asks why before implementing; can articulate clinical rationales in plain language
• Notices subtle antecedents, setting events, and environmental changes
2. Emotional Regulation & Professionalism
• Remains calm and composed during challenging behaviors, parent concerns, or team stress
• Does not personalize client behavior or corrective feedback
• Receives feedback without defensiveness and applies it constructively
3. Ethics & Scope Awareness
• Understands what is and is not within RBT scope of practice
• Seeks supervision appropriately and proactively
• Flags ethical concerns early — including treatment integrity, assent, and safety
4. Reliability & Ownership
• Consistent attendance and punctuality are non-negotiable
• Follows through on responsibilities without requiring micromanagement
• Treats client outcomes as a shared responsibility, not simply a shift obligation
5. Communication & Collaboration
• Collaborates with team members constructively; handles disagreements respectfully and privately
• Communicates professionally and warmly with caregivers while maintaining appropriate boundaries
• Knows when to defer clinical decisions to the supervising BCBA
Minimum Qualifications
