Program Description

This program will prepare students for entry-level work in secondary schools, colleges and universities, sports medicine clinics, professional sports programs, industrial settings and other healthcare environments. The curriculum is designed to meet certification and accreditation standards set forth by the National Athletic Trainers' Association Board of Certification (NATABOC) and the Joint Review Committee on education programs in Athletic Training (JRC-AT). The program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation for Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP).
