Clinical Apprentice - BCBA Fieldwork Program
About The Position
Centria’s Elevate Program is a full-time, paid practicum for people pursuing BCBA certification. Clinical Apprentices work as Behavior Technicians (BTs) or Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs), earn paid restricted and unrestricted fieldwork hours, and receive supervision, mentorship, and support.

Compensation is $18–$23 per hour in base pay, with an additional $2 per hour increase at each stage. The role provides hands-on experience delivering 1:1 ABA therapy with children and families in home, center, or school settings, and learning across six clinical domains: assessment, intervention, communication, documentation, program design, and ethics. Apprentices participate in individual and group supervision, professional development, and collaborative, data-driven, assent-based care. After completing the program and obtaining certification, participants can pursue a BCBA role, with post-certification tuition reimbursement of up to $20,000, career ladders, and internal promotion opportunities.
