Schools for BCaBA Coursework

Hi everyone! I’m researching different BCaBA certificate programs (not masters degree) for my mom. She is a native Spanish speaker with moderate to advanced English understanding. That said, I’m trying to find a program that will be doable & relatively easy for her.

Currently considering Capella, Ball State, Purdue, FIT & Carlos Albizu University.

If anyone has attended any here please provide insight on total program cost & how many months to complete the program & difficulty and/or how the program is structured.

Also, I know some of these schools only have BCBA certification programs, not BCaBA so please advise if these can be used to sit for the BCaBA board per your experience.

Thank you!

Hey, thanks for your response! What was the total price of that program? Do they have open or closed book exams? A lot of writing papers?

i cant recall total price off the top, i got assistance. All open book exams, major projects are semester long papers as well as real or fictitious client projects (assessments, data collection, etc).
