musculoskeletal anatomy, prevention and care of

sports injuries, rehabilitation, and emergency medical

procedures. The curriculum will be presented by

certified athletic trainers and other professionals

working in the sports medicine field. Other highlights

of the workshop include a trip to South East Missouri

State University for a tour of the campus along with

an interactive experience with the athletic training

education program’s faculty and students and

presentations by faculty from local athletic training

programs. A t-shirt and lunch will be provided daily

to all attendees. The program is offered to high school

students at no cost.

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 and successfully past the Board of

Certification (BOC) exam.
