Professional Athletic Training Programs (ATP) lead to eligibility to sit for the Board of Certification (BOC) examination and to enter the profession of athletic training. In order to be eligible to sit for the BOC exam, students must graduate from a Professional Athletic Training Program. Professional Programs are currently available at both the baccalaureate and post-baccalaureate degree levels.

POST-PROFESSIONAL ATHLETIC TRAINING PROGRAMS

Post-Professional Degree Programs lead to a degree (masters or doctorate) for learners that are already credentialed as athletic trainers and expand the depth and breadth of the applied, experiential, and propositional knowledge and skills of athletic trainers through didactic, clinical, and research experiences. These programs DO NOT qualify the learner to sit for the BOC exam.
