Even better? ATCC’s weekly training option starts at $39, and students who complete the course also receive the Extreme RBT® Exam Prep Bundle at no additional cost.

Can You Complete 40-Hour RBT® Training in One Week?
Yes.
The BACB® requires RBT® applicants to complete at least 40 hours of qualifying training over no fewer than 5 days and no more than 180 days.
That means a motivated student can complete ATCC’s 40-hour course within one week while still meeting the required minimum training period.
ATCC offers a $39 weekly plan. If you complete the full course during your first week, you make only one $39 payment for the training. If you need additional time, the subscription continues week-to-week until you cancel.

What Could Your One-Week Study Schedule Look Like?
The 40-hour training must be completed over multiple days, which makes a focused one-week schedule possible.
For example:
Day 1: 8 hours
Day 2: 8 hours
Day 3: 8 hours
Day 4: 8 hours
Day 5: 8 hours
Prefer a lighter schedule? You can spread your training across six or seven days instead.
The goal isn’t to rush through the material. It’s to create a realistic study schedule that helps you complete your training while still understanding the ABA concepts you’ll need later in your RBT® journey.
And because ATCC’s training is $39 per week, students who finish within their first weekly subscription period can complete the 40-hour training for one $39 payment.
What Do You Get with ATCC’s $39 40-Hour RBT® Training?
ATCC’s updated 2026 RBT® Training Course is designed around the current 40-hour training requirement and includes more than passive instruction.
Students receive access to interactive lessons, knowledge checks, quiz feedback, mock exams, an AI RBT® Study Chatbot, and an immediate downloadable Certificate of Completion once the course requirements are completed. ATCC also provides live support seven days a week.
And if you finish during your first weekly subscription period:
40 Hours of RBT® Career Training = $39
No long-term commitment is required for the weekly option.

Finish Your Training—and Unlock Extreme RBT® Exam Prep
Finishing your 40-hour course is an important milestone—but preparing for certification doesn’t stop there.
That’s why students who complete ATCC’s training also receive the Extreme RBT® Exam Prep Bundle.
It gives you additional tools to continue studying, including exam-prep materials, practice questions, topic reviews, video resources, and other study support.
Instead of finishing the course and wondering:
“Okay... what do I study now?”
You already have resources ready for your next stage of preparation.

Want ATCC to Help You Through the Rest of the RBT® Certification Process?
Here’s the important difference between ATCC’s two pathways.
The 40-Hour RBT® Training is designed for students who need the training requirement and are prepared to manage the remaining certification steps themselves.
Completing the course alone does not make you a certified RBT®. There are still additional steps in the certification process, including the competency assessment, application, and exam.
If you would rather have more support through those steps, ATCC also offers the Full RBT® Certification Program.
