New Career Resource Hub for BCBAs® and ABA Therapists: Salary Estimator, Interview Guides, and More

ABC’s Career Resource Hub is now live! 

Deciding where to build your career as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst® (BCBA®) means weighing a lot of factors at once: salary, benefits, mentorship, and what day-to-day work actually looks like. Action Behavior Centers (ABC), a leading provider of applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy for children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), built its new Career Resource Hub to bring all of that together in one place.

Whether you're a working BCBA weighing your next move or a student exploring what it takes to become a BCBA, the hub gives you a clear picture of career paths, compensation, professional development, and what it's like to work at ABC.

Here's what you'll find.

Watch a day in the life of an ABC teammate

The hub includes "day in the life" videos featuring a BCBA Clinical Director, a Registered Behavior Technician® (RBT®), and an ABA Operations Manager, so you can see what each role actually involves before you apply. You'll also find:

• A guide to top ABA graduate programs
• Highlights from ABCABA, ABC's annual clinical conference
• Information on ABC's university partnerships and student loan repayment program

New videos and guides are added on an ongoing basis, so it's worth checking back.

Hear career stories from ABC teammates

Sometimes the best way to picture your own career path is to hear from people who've already walked it.

Learn from ABC's clinical leadership

The Career Resource Hub also gives you a look at the clinical leadership behind ABC's standard of care. You can hear from Charna Mintz, Ph.D., BCBA-D, Chief Clinical Officer, on how she sets clinical standards, reviews outcomes, and mentors BCBAs and RBTs in line with Behavior Analyst Certification Board® (BACB®) ethical standards. 

You'll also find content from Gregory Hanley, Ph.D., BCBA-D, LABA, who leads ABC's Compassionate Care Team. His Skill-Based Treatment (SBT) and Practical Functional Assessment (PFA) training helps RBTs at ABC deliver compassionate, effective care for autistic children, including support with behaviors that make daily life harder.

If you’re interested in ABC’s outcomes, the Career Resource Hub also links to clinical research from the Action Institute for Outcomes Research (AIoR), led by Executive Director Linda LeBlanc, Ph.D., BCBA-D. The AIoR advances behavioral early intervention through conducting treatment outcome research on topics such as behavior support, family stress, and school readiness and placement outcomes. Findings shape how ABA services are delivered across ABC’s 450+ centers and drive continuous improvement in clinical practice.

What ABC’s HR leadership says about the Career Resource Hub

"BCBAs have a lot to consider when deciding where to build their careers, from compensation and benefits to professional development and the day-to-day experience," said Sharon Alpizar, Chief Human Resources Officer at Action Behavior Centers. "We created the Career Resource Hub to make that information easier to find and give clinicians a clearer picture of what a career at ABC can look like, whether they’re early in their journey or considering their next step.”
