What is an Athletic Trainer?

Certified athletic trainers are medical experts in preventing, recognizing, managing and rehabilitating injuries that result from physical activity. Athletic training is recognized by the American Medical Association (AMA) as an allied health care profession, and the AMA recommends certified athletic trainers in every high school to keep America’s youth safe and healthy. As part of a complete health care team, the certified athletic trainer works under the direction of a licensed physician and in cooperation with other health care professionals, athletics administrators, coaches and parents. Certified athletic trainers work in secondary schools, colleges and universities, professional sports, sports medicine clinics, military, and industrial and commercial settings.

Students who want to become certified athletic trainers must earn a degree from an accredited athletic training curriculum or meet other requirements set by the Board of Certification (BOC).
