Job Description

Atheltic Trainer

JOB TITLE: Athletic Trainer(Grades 5-12)

REPORTS TO: Athletic Director

SUPERVISES: N/A

QUALIFICATIONS:

To become a certified athletic trainer, a student must graduate with bachelor's or master’s degree from an accredited professional athletic training education program and pass a comprehensive test administered by the Board of Certification (BOC). Once certified, he or she must meet ongoing continuing education requirements in order to remain certified. Athletic trainers must also work in collaboration with a physician and within their state practice act.

Eligibility for the BOC exam is contingent upon completion of a program accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE) that must instruct the Competencies within the curriculum. Passage of the certifying examination is a requirement for licensure in most states.

The ATC® Credential

The ATC® credential and the BOC requirements are currently recognized by 49 states plus the District of Columbia for eligibility and/or regulation of the practice of athletic trainers. The credibility of the BOC program and the ATC® credential it awards are supported by three pillars: (1) the BOC certification examination; (2) the BOC Standards of Professional Practice, and Disciplinary Guidelines and Procedures; and (3) continuing competence (education) requirements.

BOC certification is recognized by the National Commission for Certifying Agencies and is the only accredited certification program for athletic trainers. To be certified, an individual must demonstrate that he or she is an athletic trainer capable of performing the required duties without threat of harm to the public. The BOC traditionally conducts annual examination development meetings during which athletic trainers and recognized experts in the science of athletic training develop, review and validate examination items and problems. The knowledge, skills, and abilities required for competent performance as an entry-level athletic trainer fall into three categories:

• Understanding, applying, and analyzing;
• Knowledge and decision-making;
• Special performance abilities.

BOC-certified athletic trainers are educated, trained and evaluated in five major practice domains:

• Injury and illness prevention and wellness promotion
• Examination, assessment and diagnosis
• Immediate and emergency care
• Therapeutic intervention
• Health care administration and professional responsibility

Additional Requirements are:

• CHRC(fingerprinting)
• Licensed in the State of Maine
