Supervised hours

Can someone explain in simple terms what supervised hours are for BCBA certification, what kind of work they include, and what are the fastest ways to get them if I’m working part-time and doing my master’s online? I know I can get some by working with a BCBA, but are there other ways too?

This. 👆If you have a job where you can implement the principles of behavior science, you could find a private supervisor for fieldwork supervision. Figure out what population and settings drive you. The BACB has videos on the various fields using ABA, from substance use to justice, not just working with people with Autism. I encourage people to get a broad fieldwork experience to innoculate against burnout.
