The Athletic Training Students’ Association (ATSA) consists of students enrolled in the athletic training program. ATSA is involved in both university and community activities. The students in ATSA work with a variety of athletic events from the university to high school settings.
Athletic Trainers (ATs) are health care professionals who collaborate with physicians. The services provided by ATs comprise prevention, emergency care, clinical diagnosis, therapeutic intervention and rehabilitation of injuries and medical conditions. For more information go to www.nata.org.
