Certification:

Active RBT certification strongly preferred About Emergent Learning Center Hawai'i Emergent Learning Center Hawai'i (ELC) is dedicated to providing high-quality, evidence-based Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) services to individuals with developmental and behavioral needs. Led by Dr. Mark Dixon, an internationally recognized behavior scientist and developer of the PEAK, LIFE, AIM, and ACT curricula, our organization integrates research, clinical practice, and professional development to support meaningful outcomes for the individuals and families we serve. We are committed to developing skilled professionals through ongoing mentorship, specialized training, and opportunities to participate in innovative behavioral programming across educational and clinical environments. Position Overview Emergent Learning Center Hawai'i is seeking dependable, motivated, and dedicated Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) to provide school-based behavioral services within Hawai'i Department of Education (DOE) settings. This position focuses on supporting students in educational environments through the implementation of individualized behavior intervention plans, skill acquisition programs, and evidence-based instructional strategies under the supervision of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). The anticipated work schedule is Monday through Friday, approximately 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM, consistent with DOE school hours. Actual start times, end times, and assigned hours may vary depending on school placement, student schedules, and organizational needs. In addition to traditional school-based behavioral support, qualified technicians may have opportunities to participate in specialized PEAK programming, including unique multiple-student caseload assignments and research-related initiatives conducted within the school setting. We strongly prefer candidates who hold an active RBT certification. Applicants who demonstrate relevant experience and a commitment to completing the certification process may also be considered.
