Some of the general differences are of course the level of expertise, the acronyms are difference and the credentialing and Continuing education requirements. The BCBA for example requires more requirements for certification and more credits for continuing education as well as more education the CABA. A BCBA, Board Certified Behavior Analysis is certified to practice in different states not just in the state they are located since it is a National Certification. The CBA is a local certification in the state in which it is located. The BCABA is usually a bachelors level certification and is also national while the CABA is a local level certification. This is a general distinction as I recall more specifics and more accurate distinctions can be attained at the BACB website.
