- Determining Sustainable Caseload Sizes for BCBAs
What is an appropriate caseload size for a BCBA? This is a common question pondered in ABA forums–by both BCBAs who are trying to identify what’s “normal” or expected in this field, as well as leaders of ABA practices who are trying to establish sustainable caseload sizes for their analysts. Finding the right balance between quality care, staff satisfaction, and financial viability can be a challenge, and there is no one-size-fits-all answer. So–what is a sustainable caseload for a BCBA? Let’s explore! Rethink BCBA Caseloads: It’s Not Just About the Number of Clients When people talk about BCBA caseloads, they often focus on how many clients the clinician oversees. But caseload size isn’t just about the headcount–it’s about the amount of time and effort required to support those clients' individualized needs. Consider this example: BCBA A has 8 clients who each receive 40 hours per week. BCBA B has 12 clients who each receive 20 hours per week. At first glance, it appears that BCBA B has a larger caseload due to the higher number of clients. There is no denying that additional clients come with additional responsibilities, but in this example, BCBA A oversees 320 weekly hours compared to BCBA B’s 240-hour caseload –an extra 80 hours per week makes a huge difference. This underscores an important consideration: caseload size should be measured by the total caseload hours , not solely the number of clients. Let’s investigate this further. Shift the Focus from Clients to Total Caseload Hours Rather than focusing solely on the number of clients, consider how many total weekly therapy hours the BCBA oversees. In other words, what is the total number of direct therapy hours they are responsible for overseeing each week? Total caseload hours do not refer to the hours the BCBA works, but rather the number of hours under them (i.e., the hours their RBTs work). Example: A BCBA with six clients who each receive 30 hours per week would carry a 180-hour caseload. While the right caseload size depends on multiple factors–which we’ll explore in the next section–most BCBAs working a standard 40-hour workweek will fall within the 130-200 hour caseload range . Let’s break that down with an example: What would a 200-hour weekly caseload size look like ? Keep in mind that a BCBA should provide 10-20% case oversight, in addition to ongoing caregiver training. If a BCBA has 200 weekly hours under them, doing the bare minimum of 10% case oversight would put them at 20 billable hours per week . It’s important to emphasize that 10% is the minimum, not necessarily the goal. Many clients and staff need additional support. If that BCBA has 10 clients and provides caregiver training for 1 hour per week for each client, that’s another 10 hours . That now puts them at 30 billable hours per week . This doesn’t factor in assessment/treatment planning or additional protocol modification. To further visualize how total caseload hours translate into billable responsibilities, consider the chart below. It outlines the number of protocol modification hours (97155) required per week, assuming the BCBA provides this service for 10-20% of the total weekly hours. Note : This does not include caregiver training (97156)—To calculate the total billable hours with caregiver training, add an additional 0.5-1 hour per client per week. Weekly Caseload Size Weekly Billable Protocol Modification Hours Required (10-20%) 125 12.5-25 150 15-30 175 17.5-35 200 20-40 225 22.5-45 250 25-50 275 27.5-55 300 30-60 Open BCBA positions? Share them on the ABA Job Board ! Additional Factors that Influence Caseload Size There are endless potential factors that can influence what constitutes a sustainable caseload size within and across ABA companies. Some things to consider include: Experience –Newly certified BCBAs should be assigned a caseload on the lower end, while systematically increasing caseload size as they demonstrate confidence and competency. Support of a Mid-Level Supervisor –A BCBA’s caseload size may increase when they have the support of a mid-level supervisor (e.g., BCaBA, Case Manager, Senior Therapist). Individualized Client Need –Clients with more significant needs, such as higher intensity interfering behaviors, will require more attention from the BCBA, impacting the number of cases the BCBA can take on. The acquisition rate of the clients can also influence how much time the analyst needs to dedicate to each client. RBT Experience –The experience level of the RBTs on the BCBA’s caseload is another big factor. RBTs with minimal experience will likely need more supervision, taking up a greater portion of the BCBA’s time. Location of Services– BCBAs working in a clinic or school setting can typically take on a larger caseload compared to in-home and community-based analysts. Administrative Workload– The amount of non-clinical, non-billable responsibilities a BCBA has (e.g., scheduling, attending meetings, fieldwork supervision) will play a significant role in the number of caseload hours they can take on. Administrative Support– Backend support for administrative responsibilities like scheduling may allow BCBAs to take on a larger caseload than they would otherwise be able to manage. Consequences of a Large BCBA Caseload Overextending BCBAs with an unmanageable caseload can lead to a range of negative repercussions, including: Compromised Quality of Care– When behavior analysts are stretched too thin, quality of care is likely to suffer. Increased Risk of Missed Deadlines & Errors– A larger caseload increases the likelihood that clinicians will struggle to meet deadlines for administrative and clinical responsibilities. Treatment plans and other documentation may also be error-ridden and/or submitted late. BCBA burnout –Chronic, unmanaged workplace stress can result in burnout, which has significant implications for clinicians, clients, and the organization as a whole. Overextending BCBAs with heavy caseloads is a recipe for burnout . Ethical violations –BCBAs are bound by the Ethics Code for Behavior Analysts . Per Section 3.03, analysts must only accept clients whom they have sufficient time and resources to effectively support. Taking on an unmanageable caseload may constitute an ethical violation. Staff turnover– Staff retention is at risk when assigning unsustainable caseloads. When BCBA demand is at an all-time high with a significant undersupply of clinicians, ABA practices must put forth efforts to avoid BCBA turnover . What Size Caseload Should a BCBA Have? BCBAs should have a caseload size in the range of 130-250 weekly hours. The exact number of weekly caseload hours will vary depending on several factors, including whether or not they have the support of a BCaBA. While the number of clients is one factor in caseload size, I encourage BCBAs and ABA practices alike to take a more holistic approach in considering relevant factors, including the total caseload hours. Take time to consider all factors when establishing BCBA caseload sizes to promote positive client outcomes, prevent staff burnout, and ensure long-term organizational success. A well-balanced caseload for BCBAs will set the behavior analyst and their clients up for long-term success.
- A Call to Action for BCBAs During Autism Acceptance Month
It’s April 1st! Today marks the start of Autism Acceptance Month, formerly widely known as Autism Awareness Month. Throughout April, we celebrate the neurodiversity among us. Within the ABA field, behavior analysts play an important role in shaping the life experiences of autistic individuals. To truly embrace autism acceptance, BCBAs must evolve toward practices that affirm neurodiversity and prioritize listening to the voices of the population we most frequently serve. Embracing Acceptance In recent years, the world shifted from a focus on autism awareness toward autism acceptance . Many folks within the neurodiversity movement pushed forward the idea that traditional autism awareness efforts were overly focused on deficits and a need to cure or fix autistic people. Through vital advocacy efforts, many within and outside of the ABA community have come to recognize autism as a natural variation of human development. Rather than focusing on fixing or curing autistic people, we should focus on accepting, respecting, accommodating, and offering individualized support to empower them to live a fulfilling life. How BCBAs Can Promote Change During Autism Acceptance Month Throughout Autism Acceptance Month and beyond, BCBAs should advocate for meaningful changes in neurodiversity-affirming practices. Here are a few recommendations. Listen to the Voices of Actual Autistics. This cannot be overstated. The majority of the practices we employ are developed and implemented by neurotypicals. People with actual lived experiences have so much insight to offer. Clinicians and organizations within the behavior analytic field must prioritize genuinely listening to those within the populations we serve. ABA has long been criticized in the autistic community. While this can be uncomfortable to encounter, it’s important to sit with that discomfort while listening, understanding, and empathizing with the concerns of the autistic population. Reflect on Your Practices Take time to self-reflect. Are you implementing harmful or outdated practices, such as intervening on harmless self-stimulatory behaviors that don’t impact the learner’s quality of life? Be sure to check your biases as you reflect. Advocate Within Your Organization Is the company you work for implementing goals or pushing forward policies that don’t align with neurodiversity-affirming practices? Advocate! While it’s easy to simply decide the company isn’t a good fit for you and start your search for a new BCBA position , consider the clients who will continue to face those practices. I urge everyone to advocate for better practices and provide feedback to your superiors. While they may be stuck in their ways, it’s also very possible that they will be open to change. For the best interest of your learners, at least make an effort to advocate for them. We as a field continue to grow and improve. “It’s always been done this way” is not an acceptable response or a reason to continue doing something. Prioritize Self-Advocacy and Autonomy Empower your clients through self-advocacy. This is a key component of neurodiversity-affirming ABA. Involve your clients in care decisions when appropriate, and encourage them to play an active role in their treatment. This involves a shift from an over-emphasis on compliance and a greater focus on independence. Promote a Strength-Based Focus Support your learners in building skills that are necessary for an improved quality of life. Focus on their unique strengths and preferences when prioritizing goals and treatment recommendations. Honor Assent Withdrawal Recognize the signs of assent and assent withdrawal in your learners and train your RBTs to identify these signs as well. When your clients withdraw assent, honor this. If you’re not familiar with the concept of assent, I strongly urge you to take some continuing education courses on the topic. Here is one I recommend: Toward an Understanding of Assent with Individuals with Communication Disabilities . The Future of ABA is Neurodiversity Affirming The ABA field has drastically transformed over the last several years. The push toward neurodiversity-affirming practices is a critical shift toward respecting and supporting autistic learners as equal members of society. Autism is not something that needs to be cured or fixed. Rather, autistic people require individualized accommodations and care that meet their diverse needs to allow them to thrive in a way that honors their unique strengths and identities. With this, I encourage ABA clinicians and organizations to reflect on their practices through April’s Autism Acceptance Month. Consider the ways, whether big or small, that you can promote change in the ABA field.
- Breaking the Cycle: Addressing High RBT & BCBA Turnover in ABA
Turnover in helping professions, like ABA therapy, has long been a struggle for employers. However, many providers have experienced significantly higher turnover rates in the last few years. According to CentralReach’s 2025 Autism and IDD Care Market Report , in 2024, organizations averaged turnover rates between 77.4%-103.3%. Smaller organizations saw lower turnover (77.4%) compared to mid-size (89.3%) and enterprise (103.3%) organizations. Since 2021, turnover increased for each subsection, aside from a slight decrease in 2024 for small therapy providers (CentralReach, 2025). While this data suggests a concerning trend, there is a glimmer of hope—there are tried and true strategies ABA providers can implement to reduce turnover. What is the Impact of Turnover in ABA? Turnover can impact an entire organization, from the leadership team to the clients and the remaining staff. It has a pervasive effect that can harm many aspects of an organization, including: Staff morale Workplace culture Quality of services Client progress Continuity of care Operational costs Client satisfaction Organizational reputation Scalability Organizational financial stability The ABA field currently has a staggering shortage of qualified professionals. By the end of 2024, there were just over 74,000 certified BCBAs. Yet in the same year, there were 103,150 BCBA job openings –that’s 30,000 more open positions than there are available BCBAs (Behavior Analyst Certification Board, 2025)! This imbalance makes it extremely difficult for employers to attract and hire BCBAs. With this in mind, it cannot be overstated how critical it is to focus efforts on retaining your team. The current market is incredibly competitive. What are the Causes of Turnover? Sometimes, RBT or BCBA turnover is unavoidable. For example, someone quits because they’re moving across the country. However, often there are preventable contributors. Turnover contributors typically include one or more of the following factors: Burnout due to high caseloads, emotional exhaustion, navigating challenging behaviors, feeling ineffective, lack of support, and/or lack of work-life balance. Low pay or a lack of benefits with a compensation package that doesn’t reflect their expertise and the demands of the job. Lack of career growth or professional development opportunities . Ineffective supervision or minimal support. Administrative burdens, such as excessive paperwork, inefficient workflows, and documentation requirements. Poor organizational culture due to high workplace stress, a lack of team cohesion, and poor management. Unrealistic expectations without sufficient time, tools, or training. Scheduling challenges, like long hours, last-minute cancellations, sessions that don’t match availability, long commutes, and a lack of flexibility. A lack of recognition for one’s work. Of course, not all turnover is bad. Sometimes turnover is necessary if a staff member isn’t the right fit for your practice. While that can’t always be avoided, being thorough in your hiring process can weed out those who aren’t a good match. How Can ABA Companies Improve Retention? Improving retention requires a multifaceted approach. The first thing organizations should do to target retention is analyze the data . What are the specific causes of turnover in your practice? This is critical information to inform retention efforts. Conduct exit interviews or exit surveys to gain data on this information. If you don’t have exit interview data, execute anonymous employee surveys with your current employees to understand what keeps them engaged and what challenges they experience. You can also read through employee reviews to gather information. Consider the following five strategies to improve employee retention. Implement a Comprehensive Onboarding and Training Program A common trend within ABA providers is to quickly onboard new RBTs and BCBAs, skimping on training to get them up and running. This is problematic. Even for highly experienced BCBAs, there should be a robust onboarding program to help staff get acquainted with your organization. Cutting corners on training will likely only hurt you in the long run. Spend time developing a comprehensive training program for each employee level to include: A structured onboarding process , with a clear roadmap, established expectations, and an assigned mentor. A shadowing experience for new hires to observe experienced staff. Hands-on learning with opportunities for role-play and working directly with clients. Training on administrative and clinical workflows . Competency checks to ensure understanding and skill before working independently. Technology training to ensure an understanding of how to utilize EHR, clinical data collection systems, or other tech your organization uses. Reevaluate Pay & Benefit Packages While pay isn’t everything, we have to be honest in the realization that it is a primary factor. This is becoming increasingly true as basic living expenses continue to rise. Pair that with the increased competition in the ABA field, especially for BCBAs, and the compensation package becomes a major factor in hiring and retention. Do market research to ensure your salaries remain competitive with industry standards. Consider also offering performance bonuses for meeting organizational goals. Further, identify whether you can offer other unique benefits, like student loan assistance or gym membership discounts. Offer Opportunities for Growth and Professional Development Invest in career growth and professional development for your team. Create staff roadmaps for career progression, such as an RBT leveling program, where staff are promoted to higher levels, which come with increased pay and responsibilities. Other ways you can invest in career growth include: Offer BCBA fieldwork supervision for aspiring BCBAs (This is really important for growing BCBAs internally!). Offer mentorship for newly certified behavior analysts. Provide or reimburse continuing education for RBTs and BCBAs. Foster a culture of feedback. Create individualized employee development plans for those who want to grow in the field. Match Expected Hours Provide the number of hours the staff are promised upon hire. This sounds simple enough, but it’s something many ABA staff, especially RBTs, report a concern with. They’re told they’ll work 30 hours/week upon hire, but quickly realize the company only has 20 hours/week to give them. Or–they’re expecting 20 hours/week, but regularly have 5-10 hours of cancelled sessions each week. Continuously matching the number of hours your staff request upon hire is a major way to retain staff. While cancellations are inevitable and changes arise that impact client hours (e.g., clients discharge, funding is stopped, etc), employers should make efforts to mitigate the impact that these factors have on the employee’s hours. For example, when clients cancel, you can offer administrative hours, where staff help out around the clinic, create materials, or do other non-billable tasks. RBTs and BCBAs appreciate consistency and reliability. Consider whether you can offer either salary positions or a plan for guaranteed hours. Side Note : Many companies offer employees a lower non-billable/administrative rate. While it is understandable that these hours don’t directly generate revenue, rate differentials are a practice you may want to reconsider, as all the work your staff do–whether or not you can bill for it–is equally valuable. Boost Supervision & Support A lack of support is a primary contributing factor to burnout and subsequent turnover. Take efforts to ensure your team feels well-supported (without feeling micromanaged). Ensure that RBTs and BTs receive a minimum of 5% high-quality supervision and that case oversight occurs at a minimum of 10% of the total hours. Additionally, foster open communication, encouraging bidirectional feedback.
