Athletic Training Education Program (ATEP)

 
Bachelor of Science in Athletic Training

The Athletic Training Education Program (ATEP) is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE) and is designed to prepare students for the exciting profession of athletic training.  Athletic Trainers are the front-line professionals dealing specifically with athletes and athletic injuries.  The program consists of various academic and clinical experiences.  Not only will ahtletic training students be exposed to numerous academic challenges but, as a part of the clinical program, they will also be involved in the daily delivery of athletic healthcare to the intercollegiate athletes at Cumberland University as well as athletes and individuals in additional settings.  This hands-on experience will better enable the students to complete clincial competencies and give them the opportunity to expand the concepts learned in the classroom.  These experiences include practice and game coverage, injury evaluation and treatment, implementing injury prevention techniques, as well as designing and implementing long-term rehabilitation and conditioning programs.
