- High school diploma or equivalent with some college coursework in psychology or education preferred
- Experience working with individuals with autism spectrum disorder or developmental disabilities

Behavior Technician Jobs in Hawaii: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a behavior technician in Hawaii?
The standard path in Hawaii is to earn the Registered Behavior Technician credential through the Behavior Analyst Certification Board. Candidates complete a forty-hour training program aligned with the RBT Task List, pass the RBT competency assessment, and pass the RBT exam. Hawaii does not issue a separate state license for behavior technicians, so the RBT is the primary credential employers require. A high school diploma is the minimum education, though many Hawaii employers prefer applicants with some college coursework in psychology, education, or a related field.
Which companies hire behavior technicians in Hawaii?
Companies currently hiring behavior technicians in Hawaii include Applied ABC, Ability Builders Consulting, and Balanced ABA, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Hawaii's tight-knit ABA provider community means that long-established clinics and nonprofit service organizations tied to the state's Department of Health developmental disabilities division are often the most consistent sources of openings.
Which Hawaii cities have the most behavior technician jobs?
Honolulu, Kailua, and Kaneohe have the most behavior technician openings in Hawaii. Honolulu dominates the market as the state's largest population center with the highest concentration of ABA clinics, public schools, and developmental disability agencies, while Hilo and communities on Hawaii Island reflect growing demand tied to DOH-funded services and school-district contracts outside Oahu.
Are there remote behavior technician jobs in Hawaii?
Yes, but they're rare. About 0% of behavior technician openings tied to Hawaii are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting that most of the role involves direct, in-person interaction with clients. The portions of the work most likely to be done remotely are session documentation, parent training consultations, and data review meetings rather than direct therapy delivery.
How can I get hired as a behavior technician in Hawaii with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying directly to ABA therapy clinics and nonprofit developmental disability providers in Hawaii as an entry-level behavior technician or ABA tutor while completing the required forty-hour RBT training. Organizations connected to Hawaii's Department of Health developmental services and school-based programs run by Hawaii's Department of Education regularly bring on candidates without prior experience and provide on-the-job supervision. Adjacent roles such as special education paraprofessional, respite care worker, or direct support professional on Oahu or Hawaii Island give candidates relevant experience that Hawaii ABA employers recognize. Earning the RBT credential before applying gives candidates a clear edge.
Where can I find and apply to behavior technician jobs in Hawaii?
