Supervision is confusing. We've created a calculator to help you understand it.
Each fieldwork type has different monthly requirements. Hours can only be accrued under one fieldwork type per month, per supervision structure, and all requirements of that fieldwork type must be satisfied for the hours to be eligible.
We recommend starting your fieldwork hours as soon as you begin your master's program to maximize your time efficiency.
Estimate based on the supervision rate set above. Confirm final pricing with your program.
We recommend starting your fieldwork hours as soon as you begin your master's program. Here's how your supervision can align with different program lengths:
With 130-160 hours per month, you can complete your fieldwork requirements in under 12 months. This elite pace is ideal for those ready to hit the ground running and finish fast.
With 110-130 hours per month, you can complete your fieldwork requirements by graduation or shortly after. This accelerated pace requires significant dedication.
With 80-100 hours per month, you can complete your fieldwork requirements by graduation or shortly after.
With 60-80 hours per month, you can complete your fieldwork requirements around the same time as your graduation.
With 40-60 hours per month, you can comfortably complete your fieldwork requirements by graduation.
With 30-40 hours per month, you can complete your fieldwork requirements within 4 years. This pace allows for a more balanced approach.
With 25-35 hours per month, you'll reach the 5-year maximum timeframe allowed by the BACB.
Note: The BACB requires all fieldwork to be completed within a 5-year period. Adjust the hours slider above to see how your specific situation affects your timeline and investment.
If you're mixing both fieldwork types, use this to see your progress toward the 2,000-hour Supervised Track equivalent.
Note: The 1.33 multiplier is only applied to Concentrated Fieldwork hours.
You need 2,000 more hours to complete your certification requirements
Disclaimer: Please double-check all calculations and stay up to date with current BACB requirements. This calculator is a guide and may not reflect the latest changes.
