RBT ethics code (2.0).  \n[https://www.bacb.com/wp-content/rbt-ethics-code](https://www.bacb.com/wp-content/rbt-ethics-code)  \nIntroduction  \nThe Behavior Analyst Certification Board® (BACB®) exists to support the certification needs of the profession and to protect consumers of applied behavior analysis (ABA) services by setting and managing professional standards. The BACB promotes ethical behavior in the profession by establishing the requirements for becoming a Registered Behavior Technician® (RBT®), the ethics standards described in this document, and the procedures for addressing professional misconduct. The RBT Ethics Code (2 . 0), hereafter referred to as the RBT Ethics Code, applies to RBTs in all of their behavior-technician activities across settings (e.g. , home, clinic, community) and modalities (e.g. , via phone, email, text, video conference, in person) . The RBT Ethics Code does not apply to RBTs’ personal behavior unless that behavior clearly poses a risk to the health and safety of clients, stakeholders, and coworkers.  \nThe RBT Ethics Code is enforced under the BACB’s Code-Enforcement Procedures. All RBT applicants and RBTs must agree to follow this code and all BACB requirements for RBTs. Lack of awareness or misunderstanding of the standards in this code is not an excuse for failing to comply with them. RBTs must also follow the applicable laws and requirements of other relevant entities (e.g. , employers, licensure boards) .  \nRBTs must practice under the direction and close supervision of an RBT Supervisor and/or RBT Requirements Coordinator, who are responsible for all work RBTs perform. Both of these roles are referred to as “supervisor” from this point forward. Because of this requirement, RBTs must seek support from their supervisor and other appropriate individuals in their workplace when interpreting and applying the RBT Ethics Code and when addressing an ethical dilemma. In these instances, RBTs prioritize following the law and placing the interest of clients first.  \nRBTs must be familiar with the four core principles that are the foundation of the RBT Ethics Code and the Ethics Code  for Behavior Analysts. Those principles are that RBTs benefit others; treat others with compassion, dignity, and respect; behave with integrity; and ensure their own competence.
