What is Athletic Training?

Athletic training encompasses the prevention, examination, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of emergent, acute, or chronic injuries and medical conditions. Athletic training is recognized by the American Medical Association, Health Resources Services Administration, and the Department of Health and Human Services as an allied health care profession. 

Athletic Trainers are highly qualified, multi-skilled health care professionals who render service or treatment, under the direction of a physician, in accordance with their education, training, and the state's statutes, rules, and regulations.
