Our Story
The Behaviorist Bookclub started with a simple idea: what if the best continuing education in ABA wasn’t locked behind a paywall?
Our Mission
Here’s the reality most practitioners know too well: continuing education in ABA is expensive, often boring, and rarely connected to what you actually deal with in practice. You sit through hours of recycled content, pay $40–$60 per CEU, and walk away wondering if any of it will change how you show up for your clients on Monday morning.
The Behaviorist Bookclub exists because that’s not good enough. We built a free community — the ABA Clubhouse — where practitioners get clinically relevant CEUs every single week. Not theoretical fluff. Not checkbox compliance. Real content about functional assessment, ethical decision-making, supervision, intervention strategies, and the messy, meaningful work of applied behavior analysis.
Our vision is simple: an ABA field where every practitioner — whether you’re a newly certified RBT in a rural clinic or a BCBA-D running a multi-site practice — has access to the education they need to be genuinely excellent. Because when clinicians grow, their clients’ lives get better. That’s the only metric that matters.
Why It’s Free
We get asked this a lot. Here’s what drives our model.
Great CEUs shouldn’t cost $50 an hour. Period. The practitioners who need quality education the most — early-career RBTs, BCBAs at small clinics, people in underserved areas — are often the ones who can least afford it. We don’t think your zip code or your employer’s training budget should determine how good you get to be.
When practitioners share knowledge freely, everyone’s clients benefit. The ABA Clubhouse isn’t just a content library — it’s a room full of people who care deeply about doing this work well. The discussions, the questions, the shared experiences — that’s where the real learning happens.
We build audience and trust first. The business model follows. We’d rather have 10,000 practitioners who genuinely trust us than 100 who paid for something mediocre. When you lead with value and do right by people, the rest takes care of itself.
What We Stand For
Every piece of content connects to real practice. We don’t do theory for theory’s sake. If it won’t change how you show up for your clients, it doesn’t belong in our library. Our content is built around the questions you actually face in sessions, in supervision, and in the ethical gray areas that keep you up at night.
Built by clinicians who understand the day-to-day. We know what it’s like to run a caseload, navigate insurance, manage a team of RBTs, and still try to stay current on the research. Our content is shaped by that reality — not by what looks good in a course catalog.
No paywalls. No gatekeeping. No excuses. We believe that access to quality education shouldn’t depend on your employer’s budget or how much you can afford out of pocket. Every CEU in the Clubhouse is free, and that’s not a promotion — it’s a principle.
The best learning happens together. A CEU is more than a video you watch alone on your couch. It’s the conversation that follows, the colleague who challenges your thinking, the peer who shares a strategy that works. The ABA Clubhouse is built for that kind of growth.
Every CEU is free. Every session is clinically relevant. Your growth starts now.
