Common questions

Is this the official BACB competency assessment?: No. These are preparation and planning aids written by Operation Optimize. The official assessment is conducted by a qualified assessor and nothing here replaces or simulates it.
Do I need an account?: No. Every tool works anonymously in your browser. An account is only needed if you want to keep your results.
What happens if I save my results?: They are stored in your Professional Passport as self-recorded entries. They never become supervisor-verified or organization-verified from these free tools.
Can my supervisor see my results?: Only if you choose to share them from your passport. Nothing is shared automatically.

A preparation and planning aid. It is not the official BACB competency assessment, not proof of certification eligibility, and not a substitute for a qualified assessor. Official RBT requirements
