The Complete Student Analyst Training Checklist
A BCBA Fieldwork, Supervision, and Competency Roadmap for Student Analysts
Becoming a behavior analyst requires more than collecting fieldwork hours. Student analysts need structured opportunities to observe, practice, receive feedback, and build confidence across the real responsibilities of BCBA work.
The Complete Student Analyst Training Checklist was created to help student analysts and supervisors bring more organization, intention, and direction to the supervision process.
This 39-page resource provides a structured way to track clinical exposure, identify training gaps, guide supervision discussions, and support competency development across meaningful areas of behavior analyst practice.
Whether you are a student analyst trying to better understand what to practice during fieldwork or a supervising BCBA looking for a clearer training roadmap, this checklist gives you a practical framework for making supervision more purposeful.

Fieldwork Can Feel Overwhelming. This Checklist Gives You a Roadmap.
Many student analysts know they need to complete fieldwork hours, but they are not always sure what skills they should be actively building during those hours.
This resource helps organize the process by giving student analysts and supervisors a clear way to look at what has been reviewed, modeled, practiced with feedback, completed more independently, or identified as an area for continued growth.
Instead of relying on scattered notes, vague supervision conversations, or trying to remember what has already been practiced, this checklist creates a more structured path for clinical training.
