BACB Certification Requirements (All BCBAs in Indiana)
Regardless of state, your BACB certification renews on a 2-year cycle.
| Credential | Cycle | Total CEUs | Ethics | Supervision |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BCBA / BCBA-D | 2 years | 32 CEUs | 4 CEUs minimum | 3 CEUs if recertifying before January 1, 2027; 4 CEUs if recertifying on or after January 1, 2027, when the supervision requirement applies. |
| BCaBA | 2 years | 20 CEUs | 4 CEUs minimum | 3 CEUs if you supervise; unchanged in 2027 |
Use your recertification date, not the cycle start date. For BCBAs and BCBA-Ds, the supervision requirement applies if you supervised RBTs or BCaBAs on record, or trainees pursuing BCBA or BCaBA certification, at any point during the cycle. Stopping supervision before renewal does not remove that requirement. If you did not supervise during the cycle, no supervision CEUs are required; total and ethics CEUs still apply.
Starting July 1, 2026: BACB requires participation monitoring. The handbook’s example measure is a minimum of 3 knowledge questions per CEU, or another form of required active responding. This is not a video or format mandate: article-and-quiz, journal clubs, and podcasts remain BACB-eligible.
State Licensure: Indiana
State-specific requirements: Special Learning has withdrawn this page’s statement about behavior-analyst licensure in Indiana, effective 18 August 2026. The statement we previously published here was not sourced to a primary authority — a statute, a regulation, or the state board itself — so we are not asserting anything in either direction about whether Indiana licenses behavior analysts. Confirm your status with the Indiana licensing authority before you rely on any continuing education for a state renewal. This does not change your BACB certification requirements, which are shown above and apply wherever you practice.
