If you’re a certified athletic trainer and want to join an association that supports your profession perhaps you should think about joining NATA. The National Athletic Trainers’ Association is the professional membership association for certified athletic trainers and those who support the profession.
NATA was founded in 1950 and since then has grown significantly, having at the moment almost 30,000 members from around the world. Together NATA members accomplish more than they would individually for the athletic training profession. The national office for NATA currently has over 40 full time staff members who work diligently to accomplish NATA’s mission. Members benefit from virtual library online classes, a career center that can help them find jobs in the field, online communities where they can discuss important issues relevant to their profession, member discounts, networking opportunities, and much more. On the website athletic trainers will find information on the association, how to become a member, news, media guides, upcoming meetings and events, job opportunities, and much more.
