I can’t add my supervisor when entering my fieldwork hours in the BCBA or BCaBA Certification Application. What might be the issue?

  • There are a few possible reasons:
    • Incorrect BACB ID or certification number: Confirm with your supervisor that you have the correct number, selected the appropriate entry type (BACB ID or certification number), and entered the number in the correct format. For more information, see What is the difference between a BACB ID number and a certification number? (opens in a new tab)
    • Supervisor qualification requirements: Your supervisor must have been an active BCBA, completed an 8-hour supervision training, and met the applicable ongoing supervision CEU requirements for the dates of your fieldwork. Review the supervisor qualifications in the relevant handbook and confirm with your supervisor that they met those requirements.
    • Disciplinary sanctions: Your supervisor may have a disciplinary sanction that prohibits them from serving in this role. Visit the BACB Certificant Registry (opens in a new tab) and BACB Disciplinary Actions (opens in a new tab) web pages for more information.
