The NATA Research & Education Foundation Free Communications Program provides a forum for researchers and clinicians to disseminate research and clinical case studies. The program is a subcommittee of the NATA Foundation Research Committee. The Free Communications Program is often the first time researchers and clinicians are able to present their findings and is a great way to get research out to ATs before their study is published.
Certified athletic trainers attending the 2020 NATA Virtual Clinical Symposium & AT Expo, live and on-demand, have the opportunity to earn up to 25 CEUs, including 5 EBP CEUs. Attendees can participate in any combination of live and on-demand sessions to reach the maximum number of CEUs allowed.
