Frequently Asked Questions
Does this curriculum cover enough content to reach the 2000-hour supervision requirement?
Yes, when used in alignment with BACB supervision requirements (i.e. supervision by a qualified BCBA, individualized behavior-analytic activities tied to client work, approved unrestricted hours, and proper documentation). With 60+ structured lessons, 300+ activities that supervisors can assign or adapt for unrestricted hours, and client-facing documentation and activities to support remote supervision, this curriculum provides enough content to guide supervision throughout the 2000-hour fieldwork experience. It is designed as a flexible tool for BCBA supervisors to individualize based on each supervisee’s goals and caseload, supporting BACB-aligned, client-centered supervision.
Is the content aligned with the BACB 6th Edition Test Content Outline?
Absolutely. Every lesson is built around the 6th Edition Test Content Outline and Ethics Code - and we’ve included additional topics that go beyond the requirements to prepare supervisees for real-world BCBA work.
Can this curriculum be used for both individual and group supervision?
Yes. It includes structured lessons for one-on-one sessions and six ready-to-use presentations designed to support group supervision meetings. Each lesson includes discussion prompts and applied practice activities intended to connect supervision content to the supervisee’s current clients and real-life service delivery.
Do we pay per supervisee?
No. With a BIP Visualized team account, each of your BCBAs gets their own account and can use the curriculum with an unlimited number of supervisees.
Can supervisees use this independently?
The curriculum is intended for BCBA supervisors to use as a tool to lead engaging, structured supervision sessions with their supervisees, or for independent use as study support when preparing for the BCBA exam. Supervisees may not use the curriculum to accrue supervision hours without the direct guidance and oversight of a qualified BCBA supervisor.
Do you offer team or organizational discounts?
Yes, we offer discounts for teams of 5 or more. Contact us for a quote.
Does this curriculum meet current BACB supervision requirements?
Yes. We stay current on BACB requirements and update content accordingly. Every lesson is built around the 6th Edition Test Content Outline and current Ethics Code, with additional content beyond the requirements to prepare supervisees for real-world BCBA work. We've also included resources and a self-check quiz so your BCBAs can confirm they understand the requirements before supervision begins.
What happens if a BCBA joins or leaves our team?
You can add, remove, or reassign team members anytime from your admin account.
How long does it take to get our team set up?
As soon as you start a team account and invite your BCBAs, they’ll have immediate access to the curriculum and all tools, resources, and trainings on BIP Visualized. If a BCBA is new to supervision, we recommend they start with our on-demand CEU, An Approachable Guide to BCBA Supervision, which is included with their access.
How does this curriculum fit within the supervision relationship?
The ABA Visualized BCBA Supervision Curriculum is designed to be used within an active supervisory relationship. The supervising BCBA remains responsible for all client programming, data oversight, and ensuring that activities align with BACB fieldwork standards. The curriculum simply provides structured educational materials to make supervision more organized, evidence-based, and engaging.
Can you help me find a supervisor or more supervisees?
Yes! We offer a free matching platform (bcba-supervision.com) that connects supervisees with BCBA supervisors who are accepting new supervisees and use our curriculum. This platform helps match supervisees and supervisors based on experience, values, and availability, making it easier to find a good fit.
What are examples of acceptable and not acceptable unrestricted hours?
It is the BCBA supervisor’s responsibility to oversee and approve which activities are eligible for fieldwork hours. In general, acceptable unrestricted activities include behavior-analytic tasks tied to client work, such as analyzing data, developing or updating behavior plans, collaborating with caregivers or other professionals, and supporting staff training under BCBA guidance. Activities that are not acceptable as unrestricted hours include administrative tasks, independent studying or exam preparation, passive observation without analysis, or any work completed without direct BCBA oversight.
How do I find a BCBA supervisor?
The BACB maintains a public registry of BCBAs who are eligible to provide supervision. In addition, we offer a free directory of BCBA supervisors who use this curriculum and are currently available to take on supervisees. Each profile includes information about the supervisor’s experience and professional values, making it easier to find a supervisor who is a good fit for your learning goals. You can check it out here: bcba-supervision.com
What is the BCBA supervisor’s role?
The BCBA supervisor is responsible for overseeing the supervision experience, assigning and approving fieldwork activities, providing ongoing feedback and evaluation, and ensuring all supervision hours and activities meet BACB requirements. The supervisor guides skill development, clinical decision-making, and ethical practice while maintaining responsibility for the quality and integrity of the supervision process.
Can I use this curriculum on my own?
Yes, the curriculum can be used independently for studying and exam preparation. However, it cannot be used to accrue BCBA supervision hours without the direct guidance, oversight, and approval of a qualified BCBA supervisor. All activities that count toward supervised fieldwork must be tied to specific client programming - independent use of this curriculum does not meet that requirement, regardless of supervisor approval.
How does this curriculum differ from BCBA coursework?
BCBA coursework focuses on teaching foundational concepts and meeting academic requirements. This curriculum is designed to complement that coursework by emphasizing applied, real-world skill development, clinical decision-making, and supervised practice tied to client work. It bridges the gap between what you learn in class and how behavior analysis is applied in day-to-day professional practice.
