Important to Know!

• Effective January 2022, all RBTs will be required to adhere to RBT Ethics Code (2.0).

• If you have started but have not completed (partially completed) modules 26A and 26B prior to December 18th, 2021, the modules will automatically be reset with Rethink’s RBT Training update. Therefore, you will have to retake those modules from the beginning again.

  • A partially completed module includes the following:

    • Started a video from the Ethics modules but did not complete the video.

    • Completed a video from the Ethics modules but did not take the module test.

    • Completed a video from the Ethics modules, took the module test but did not receive a score of 90% or higher.

• If you completed Rethink’s RBT Training  modules 26A Ethical and Professional Behavior Part 1 and 26B Ethical and Professional Behavior Part 2 prior to December 18th, 2021, and plan to sit for the RBT exam after January 1, 2022, we recommend that you review and retake the updated Rethink modules on Ethics. This will help prepare you to answer any RBT exam questions that are based on RBT Ethics Code 2.0.

• If you completed Rethink’s RBT Training  modules 26A Ethical and Professional Behavior Part 1 and 26B Ethical and Professional Behavior Part 2  prior to December 18th, 2021, and have already taken or plan to take the RBT exam prior to January 1, 2022, it is still highly recommended that you review the new RBT Ethics Code 2.0. This will help inform you on the code of ethics you will need to adhere to as an RBT.
