What it Takes to Become a Licensed Athletic Trainer By: Marcus Escobar

Have you ever thought about being a licensed athletic trainer for a
career. Sometimes it can be very fun, but to get there you have to work a little
bit. First, you have to go to college for four years and get a
bachelors degree. Then most of the licensed athletic trainers have to be
certified by the National Athletic Trainers Association Board of
Certification. After that, you have to find a job that allows you to help prevent,
recognize, evaluate, and treat athletic injuries. Some duties
that come with being a Licensed Athletic Trainer are emergency care and
immediate on-site medical assistance. Then if they there is something
really wrong, they will send you to the appropriate health care provider.
So if you really want to become a Licensed Athletic trainer, you should work as one
at your school, and it will help you get started on your new career
goal.
