About the program

The Athletic Training Program (ATP) at Marist College strives to develop ethical and culturally sensitive health care professionals who are effective team members, life-long learners, and advocates for patients and the public while providing service to the profession and to local and global communities.

Athletic training is an area of health care concerned with prevention, recognition, care, management and rehabilitation of injury and illness in physically active populations. Athletic trainers work as part of a comprehensive sports medicine team that includes physicians, physical therapists, and other health-care professionals.

The National Athletic Trainers’ Association (NATA) is the professional membership association for certified athletic trainers and its purpose is to represent, engage and foster the continued growth and development of the athletic training profession and athletic trainers as unique health care providers.

Careers

Our program qualifies students for entry-level professional positions in high schools, colleges and universities, professional sports organizations, hospitals and clinics, and corporate and industrial settings. Students may also go on for further study in graduate and professional schools, including schools of medicine and physical therapy and chiropractics.

Upon completion of the B.S. degree in Athletic Training, graduates will be eligible to sit for the certification examination administered by the Board of Certification (BOC). Those passing this exam will be certified as athletic trainers.
