The National Athletic Trainers Association (NATA) membership celebrate the Athletic Training profession each March to spread awareness of the important work Athletic Trainers (AT’s) do. This year’s slogan is “Providing Health Care Everywhere”. As our profession grows and our expertise is recognized by more and more groups, Athletic Trainers are employed in many settings outside of the traditional school and professional sports team settings. Athletic Trainers can be found working in corporations, First Responder Organizations, Physical Therapy Clinics and Hospitals, with our Military and many other settings.
