Study Notes
RBT® Initial Competency Assessment
-
The RBT® Initial Competency Assessment form is used to evaluate the skills and knowledge of Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs).
-
This form requires RBTs to demonstrate 20 different tasks, including measurement techniques, assessment procedures, and skill acquisition and behavior reduction strategies.
-
Three of the tasks must be conducted with a client, and the rest can be demonstrated through role-plays or interviews.
Task Breakdown
-
Measurement (Tasks 1-3):
- Task 1: Continuous measurement (e.g., frequency, duration, latency, interresponse time (IRT))
- Task 2: Discontinuous measurement (e.g., partial and whole interval, momentary time sampling)
- Task 3: Data and Graphs: entering data and updating graphs.
-
Assessment (Tasks 4-5):
- Task 4: Conducting preference assessments.
- Task 5: Collecting ABC data.
-
Skill Acquisition and Behavior Reduction (Tasks 6-15):
- Task 6: Implementing discrete-trial teaching procedures.
- Task 7: Implementing naturalistic teaching procedures, such as incidental teaching.
- Task 8: Implementing task analyzed chaining procedures.
- Task 9: Implementing shaping procedures.
- Task 10: Implementing discrimination training.
- Task 11: Implementing stimulus control transfer procedures.
- Task 12: Implementing prompt and prompt fading procedures.
- Task 13: Implementing token systems.
- Task 14: Implementing crisis/emergency procedures according to protocol.
Form Requirements
- All 20 tasks must be completed.
- Three tasks (6-15) must be demonstrated with a client.
- The assessment form must be complete.
Organization
- "Step Ahead ABA" organization is mentioned in the form.
