What careers can BCBAs pursue outside of clinical ABA?
BCBAs can apply their skills in areas such as organizational behavior management (OBM), performance improvement, training, consulting, and project management. Intro to OBM Careers helps you explore possible paths and consider which roles and industries align with your interests and values.
How do I transition from clinical ABA to an OBM career?
A transition into OBM often starts with identifying the work you want to do, recognizing the skills you already use, and learning how employers describe similar work. This course walks behavior analysts through those decisions and introduces practical job search strategies for exploring a career shift.
Do I need OBM experience to take this course?
No. This introductory course is for behavior analysts who are curious about OBM careers, including those who are still deciding whether they want to leave clinical practice.
What types of jobs are available in Organizational Behavior Management?
OBM can lead to work across different roles, industries, and areas of focus. Job titles do not always include “OBM,” which can make opportunities difficult to spot. The course helps you think beyond a single job title as you explore potential career paths.
How can I make my BCBA experience relevant on a nonclinical resume?
The key is to describe your experience in terms that connect with the role you’re applying for. This course introduces ways to examine job descriptions, identify relevant skills, and translate clinical experience for employers outside of ABA.
Should I pursue an OBM certification before applying for jobs?
That depends on the role and industry you’re targeting. The course encourages you to research what employers actually require and weigh the time and cost of additional training against your career goals.
Is this course only for BCBAs who want to leave clinical practice?
No. It’s also for behavior analysts who want to understand where OBM can be applied, explore new industries, or consider how their current skills might transfer to other work.
