Athletic training is recognized by the American Medical Association as a healthcare profession. With more emphasis on preventative care in today’s healthcare environment, the role of athletic trainers is becoming increasingly important in preventing, assessing, and rehabilitating injuries & illnesses.
The Board of Certification (BOC) is the official certifying agency for athletic trainers. Anyone wishing to become a BOC–certified athletic trainer must have graduated from a program accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE).
Through a blend of classroom instruction and clinical experience, the program teaches the prevention, management, and rehabilitation of injuries and illnesses. Our faculty offers exciting opportunities and challenges in a demanding but rewarding curriculum.
