Quality BA Regulations
 

The current regulations for licensed behavior analysts in the state of Virginia represent the field well and have enabled the continued delivery of quality services by such licensed professionals.  It is recommended that the regulations remain as they are written.  The BACB's certification process is one to be highly respected and should continue to be the first requirement toward becoming state licensed.  An advisory board containing behavior analysts would certainly be the best way to oversee professionals licensed and practicing in our state.
