Need Help Selecting an AT Program?

There are several factors to consider when determining which athletic training program is the right fit for you. It's important to investigate potential programs and weigh how each does or doesn't meet your personal needs. While cost is an important factor, it’s not the only one. Class size, curriculum design, faculty involvement, campus life and program outcomes are just a few other considerations to keep in mind when making your decision.

Considerations for Transgender Athletes

By Jennifer McHenry, MS, LAT, ATC, with additional reporting from Emma Nye DAT, LAT, ATC

 

I have been an athletic trainer in the high school setting for more than 20 years. I hope my athletes remember me after they graduate as someone they could trust and turn to when they had a problem, whether it was athletic related or not.
