Individual vs. group supervision

One-on-one vs. a 2–10 person group. At least half of your supervision must be individual.

What it means

Individual supervision is one-on-one between you and your supervisor. Group supervision is an interactive meeting of 2 to 10 trainees (never more than 10, regardless of how many BCBAs® are present). Both count, but at least 50% of your supervision in each period must be individual — group may not exceed half.

Example

You need 6 supervised hours this month: at least 3 must be one-on-one; the rest can be in a group of up to 10 trainees.

Where it trips people up

Leaning on a weekly group meeting can leave you short on individual supervision even when your total supervised hours look fine. Track the two separately.
