Athletic Training Careers

Become a certified athletic trainer

Certification for athletic training requires the successful completion of a bachelors (being phased out by 2022) or masters degree in athletic training from an institution that has been accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education and successful completion of the national exam given by the Board of Certification.

 

WSU has moved to a Master’s in Athletic Training program, which will require students to be at WSU for 5 years.  Students will complete a BS in Sports Medicine and a Master’s in Athletic Training.
