Who it’s for

Which certification is right for you?

The degree you already hold determines your path — and if you have a master’s, this single program lets you qualify for both credentials.

Bachelor’s → IBA®

International Behavior Analyst (IBAO®): the international analyst track open to anyone with a completed undergraduate degree.

Master’s → QBA®

Qualified Behavior Analyst (QABA®): QABA®’s highest credential, for those with a master’s degree.

Master’s → IBA® + QBA®

Both credentials with the same 310h program — the strongest international positioning possible.

The certification landscape

Two international boards, one program.

Beyou Foundation worked with experts in instructional design and certification paths, and with ABA instructors from the US, to build a single 310-hour curriculum based on the BACB® competency domains.

IBA® · IBAO® board logo

IBA® · IBAO®

International Behavior Analyst — issued by an international board with a council of analysts from 60+ countries and exams in several languages, including Portuguese. Requirement: bachelor’s degree.

Authorized Content Provider
QBA® · QABA® board logo

QBA® · QABA®

Qualified Behavior Analyst — the highest level of the US board QABA® (ANSI/ANAB accreditation), qualifying you for independent practice as an analyst. Requirement: master’s degree.

Approved Training Provider

Certification is issued by the board at the end of the training, practice and exam process. A bridge to the master’s: because it follows BACB® guidelines, the program allows you to transfer credits to the Beyou Global Institute master’s program in Florida (2027), taught in English, Portuguese and Spanish.

Supervision track

Board-required supervision that doesn’t stand in your way.

Each board has its own rules — IBA®: 75h of supervision over 1,500h of fieldwork; QBA®: 100h over 2,000h. Beyou structures both paths.

Group supervision · 48h

A Beyou product purchased with the course or separately: 24 live 2-hour sessions (twice a month for 12 months), based on real cases from Beyou clients in the US and Brazil (de-identified), in classes of up to 30 students.

Individual, via the Paid Trainee Program

Those who complete the 310h can apply for the paid, 100% remote internship: real ABA practice in the caregiver-led model, with the individual supervision hours completed in 6 months.

Or with an external supervisor

You complete the individual hours with a board-approved supervisor of your choice — Beyou referrals available.

Learning, not client care: group supervision starts with case studies and, after the first 85 hours of the course, moves on to observing a real case assigned to you — with full client safety and board compliance.

Frequently asked questions

Get your questions answered before you decide.

Does Beyou issue the certification?

No. The credential is issued by IBAO® or QABA® itself, once all of the board’s requirements are met — and we prepare and guide you at every step.

What is the difference between IBA® and QBA®?

Both are analyst credentials. IBA® is from IBAO® and requires a bachelor’s degree; QBA® is from QABA® and requires a master’s degree. The same 310h program prepares you for both — if you have a master’s, you can qualify for both.

Which professions are eligible?

Psychology, education, speech-language pathology, occupational therapy, medicine, nursing, physical therapy and related fields — with a completed bachelor’s degree.

How much study time per week?

About 6–7h of content at your own pace, plus the live class every two weeks and, if purchased, group supervision.

What support will I receive?

Office hours, mentoring, documentation guidance and a class of up to 30 students, closely supported by the faculty.

What comes after the course?

Supervision, supervisor referrals, a paid internship, an international community — and the credit transfer to the master’s program in Florida (2027).

How does it work, from enrollment to certification?

The complete path has 6 steps: 1) Interest list → 2) Coursework · 310h → 3) Supervised practice → 4) Documentation → 5) Board exam → 6) Certification. The Beyou team supports you at every step; the credential is issued by the board at the end.
