Question 1

What should you know about BCBA jobs in Missouri?

Accepted Answer

BCBA roles in Missouri are advertised nationally at around $75k – $115k; what an individual Missouri offer is worth depends on licensure, setting mix, caseload and cost of living rather than a single state average. Two distinct metro markets that rarely share candidates; searches need to be run separately. Missouri licenses behavior analysts through the Committee of Behavior Analysts.

Question 2

Do I need a state license as well as BCBA certification?

Accepted Answer

In most states, yes. The majority now license behavior analysts separately (commonly LBA or LABA), and payers increasingly require it. Certification is national; licensure is state by state, so plan for both when you move.

Question 3

What caseload should a BCBA expect?

Accepted Answer

It varies by setting and payer mix. Center-based roles are usually quoted as a client count, in-home roles as billable hours per week. Ask for both numbers plus the supervision ratio before you accept; it tells you more about the job than the salary does.

Question 4

Can BCBA work be remote?

Accepted Answer

Partly. Telehealth supervision, parent training and program writing are routinely remote, while assessments and overlaps usually are not. Fully remote BCBA roles exist but are a small share of the market.
