Almost a BCBA? Our paid student-analyst track
If you're deep into supervised fieldwork, the student-analyst role lets you earn the rest of your hours doing the real job — paid, on real cases, with structured BCBA supervision. It's a fit if you have 680+ unrestricted and 280+ restricted fieldwork hours and are within about 6 months of exam eligibility. Details on our careers page.
What a week can look like for a BCBA in Fort Collins
Your week centers on clinical work: assessments and plan updates for children on your caseload, supervision time with the RBTs running their sessions, and parent coaching — in person at Fort Collins homes or by video. Authorizations and admin go to our intake team, not your evenings.
Because sessions happen across Fort Collins, caseloads are organized by part of town where possible, so supervision visits don't eat your day.
Why clinicians choose Sunbird
Well-supported clinicians give the best care. That's not a slogan — it's the whole staffing strategy.
- Family-run, for real. The founder's name is on the door and her standard is simple: care good enough for her own kids, and a team treated the way we ask them to treat families.
- Caseloads you can serve well. We'd rather grow slowly than stretch a clinician thin. Your caseload is sized so every child on it actually gets your best work.
- Mentorship that shows up. Real supervision hours, clinical leadership that still sees clients, and questions answered by people who remember being new at this.
- Work that travels with the child. Home, daycare, telehealth — and centers coming soon. You'll see your work hold up in real life, not just in a session room.
