(2021) . RBT ethics code (2.0). Littleton, CO: Author.  \nWhat are ethical codes?  \nThe RBT® Ethics Code describes the ethical requirements for both RBTs and RBT applicants.  \nAll RBTs and RBT applicants must agree to abide by this code .  \nBecause RBTs are not independent practitioners and must receive ongoing supervision of their practice, those who supervise RBTs must also be familiar with this code .  \nIn addition to the specific code elements below, all RBTs and RBT applicants must:  \n• provide truthful and accurate information to the BACB;  \n• report the following to the BACB within 30 days: legal charges (and subsequent related actions and documents as requested by the BACB); investigations and disciplinary actions by employers (e.g., suspensions and terminations for cause), governmental agencies, educational institutions, and third-party payers; a physical or mental condition that impairs the RBT’s ability to safely work; or a change of name, mailing address, or email address;  \n• adhere to all requirements regarding use of BACB intellectual property (see 10.03 of the Professional and Ethical Compliance Code for Behavior Analysts);  \n• adhere to the rules of the BACB and approved testing centers including, but not limited to, rules related to cheating, falsifying information, and unauthorized collection, use, or distribution of exam materials; and  \n• comply with all BACB requirements for RBT training, assessment, audits, and supervision.  \nDid you know…  \n• BCBAs also have a professional and ethical code  \n• 1.0 Responsible Conduct of Behavior Analysts  \n• 2.0 Behavior Analysts’ Responsibility to Clients  \n• 3.0 Assessing Behavior  \n• 4.0 Behavior Analysts and the Behavior-Change Program  \n• 5.0 Behavior Analysts as Supervisors  \n• 6.0 Behavior Analysts’ Ethical Responsibility to the Profession of Behavior Analysts  \n• 7.0 Behavior Analysts’ Ethical Responsibility to Colleagues  \n• 8.0 Public Statements  \n• 9.0 Behavior Analysts and Research  \n• 10.0 Behavior Analysts’ Ethical Responsibility to the BACB  \nWhy do RBT® also have an ethical code if they are working under a BCBA’s credential?  \n• Maintaining ethical standards is the responsibility of professionals in most fields. Business owners, attorneys, and medical professionals all have their own ethical codes of conduct. Consumers have an expectation of ethical behavior when engaging in a relationship with professionals . However, despite this expectation and these standards, ethical violations still occur.  \n• The RBT® Ethics Code (2018) was established by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board® (BACB) to assist in navigating ethical situations that may arise while engaging with special populations .  \n• These codes encompass the ethical obligation of Registered Behavior Technicians™ (RBT®) and RBT applicants . Adherence to these codes is critical to maintain the dignity and humane treatment of consumers of Applied Behavior Analysis .  \nRBT Ethics Codes 2.0  \nBackground Info.  \nDec . 2018:  \nThe BACB published the RBT Ethics Code, the first stand-alone ethics code for RBTs, on December 28, 2018.  \nOct. 2020-  \nThe BACB began a project to revise the RBT Ethics Code in October 2020.  \nJan. 2022-  \nThe project aimed to ensure that the RBT Ethics Code standards remain relevant to current practice and align with the revised Ethics Code for Behavior Analysts. This revision resulted in the RBT Ethics Code (2.0) .  \nWhy a new RBT Ethics Code?  \nBecause the BACB’s certification-program accreditor (the National Commission for Certifying Agencies) requires that certification requirements be periodically reviewed for possible revision  \nRecently published Ethics Code for Behavior Analysts  \nRBT Ethics Code (2.0)  \n• Includes:  \n• A new introduction  \n• Contains brief descriptions of the scope of the code, the 4 core principles that serve as its foundation, and guidance on how to apply the new code .  \n• Clearly ind","cbCaicXMe7wFoNch","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicXMe7wFoNch","pdf",10489616,74,"English","# What Are Ethical Codes?\n## Who Must Follow the RBT Ethics Code\n# Key Requirements for RBTs and Applicants\n## Reporting and BACB Notifications\n## Intellectual Property and Testing Rules\n# Background Information\n## Why a New RBT Ethics Code?\n# Scope and Structure of Ethics Standards\n## Core Principles and 3 Sections\n## Glossary","[{\"question\":\"Who must comply with the RBT Ethics Code (2.0)?\",\"answer\":\"Both RBTs and RBT applicants must agree to abide by the code.
