How do the master’s of science in counseling and the certification in applied behavior analysis combine?
Students seeking certification at the BCBA level are required to have a master’s degree in education, psychology, counseling, social work, or another related field. The master’s of science in counseling with a concentration in advanced applied behavior analysis will allow students to meet the academic criteria for certification. In addition, ABA is frequently used in the field of counseling by private practitioners and counselors working in schools.
