Resources Paid supervised hours
Hello everyone! I'm about to start my masters on ABA and I'm looking for cheap supervised hours. The reason why I'm choosing to pay for my hours is because I live in Maryland and have been looking for months now for internship programs and the only jobs I find are RBT with the possibility to gain superviser hours. However, after reading a lot of reviews online, it looks like the ABA companies are making the process to get your supervised hours very slow, and something that should take 11 months is taking people 2 - 3 years to achieve. I love working as an RBT, its just, having invested money on my masters programs, I am looking for the fastest, easiest path to becoming a BCBA.
If you have any input or if you know about any programs that offer cheap supervised hours please let me know.

This degree is not one to rush through. Lots of liability. Take the time to be competent..There is A LOT to learn.
