BACB Certification Requirements (All BCBAs in North Dakota)
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 per two-year cycle through 2026, then 4 from January 1, 2027 (if you supervise) |
| BCaBA | 2 years | 20 CEUs | 4 CEUs minimum | — |
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: North Dakota
State-specific requirements: Special Learning has withdrawn this page’s statement about behavior-analyst licensure in North Dakota, effective 18 August 2026.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 North Dakota licenses behavior analysts. Confirm your status with the North Dakota 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.
