BACBverified

BACBverified is a digital credentialing system developed by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB). It aims to provide a secure and verifiable way for individuals to confirm the certification status of behavior analysts. The system allows employers, consumers, and other stakeholders to easily check if a behavior analyst holds a current and valid certification issued by the BACB.

The BACB is the international credentialing body for behavior analysts. It establishes and upholds standards for the ethical and professional practice of behavior analysis. Holding a BACB certification, such as Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) or Board Certified Assistant Behavior Analyst (BCaBA), indicates that an individual has met specific educational, experience, and examination requirements.

BACBverified functions by providing a public-facing platform where users can search for certified individuals. This search typically involves entering the individual's name or certification number. The system then displays their certification status, including whether it is active, expired, or subject to any disciplinary actions. This transparency is intended to protect the public by ensuring that individuals practicing behavior analysis are properly credentialed and adhere to the BACB's ethical guidelines. The BACB emphasizes that its verification system is a crucial tool for maintaining public trust and ensuring quality services.
