Planning to become BCBA — is this the right path?

Hi! I’m currently in community college working toward my associate’s in Early Childhood Education, and I plan to transfer to a university to complete a bachelor’s in Early Childhood and Family Studies.

I’m interested in becoming an RBT and eventually a BCBA. Does this sound like a good educational path for that career?

Also, if there are any RBTs or BCBAs in Upstate SC, would you mind sharing what the salary range looks like in this area?
