After completing the supervision training requirement by the BACB, BCBAs are able to provide supervision

• A. Within their defined areas of competence
• B. To any candidate regardless of area
• C. Only to BCBA-D
• D. Remotely only

Answer: (A)

Supervision is provided within the supervisor’s own demonstrated strengths. After completing the BACB supervision training, a BCBA can supervise as long as the supervisee’s work falls under the supervisor’s defined areas of competence—meaning the supervisor has the knowledge, training, and experience to oversee that specific content and ensure ethical, effective practice. This protects clients and maintains quality training. Supervising outside your competent areas would risk harm and isn’t permitted, so you aren’t limited to just one degree (BCBA-D) or to remote formats only. You can supervise eligible candidates in person or remotely, but only in areas where you have competence.
