Cheapest/Fastest Route to getting an LBA/BCBA - dbwdb - 07-15-2021

Looking into possibly getting LBA/BCBA certification and for that I first need to get a masters in psychology or education, something that addresses learning and behavioral changes. I already have a BA.

Any recommendations for the cheapest, fastest route to get that graduate degree. I need something entirely online.

Thank you!

Are you located in the US? The options can vary if you're not.

I'm not in the US but I'm looking to get hired for remote jobs in the US so I'll probably need a US regional degree. I'm not looking to work in the country I live bec. the pay is probably a lot lower

That rules out WGU for Education.   Walden could be a good option for you as an international student - here is a thread on the Walden University’s MS-Psychology: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-Walden-University-MS-Psychology-Tempo-Learning

BACB will soon be implementing stricter standards. It's best to earn a degree with an approved applied behavioral analysis curriculum.

There's ABAI accreditation.

There's ABAI-approved course sequences. On this site, you can filter by mode of instruction.

I'm looking at Capella and Walden-the quick tracks. Which graduate level education or psychology major is easiest and fastest?
