An athletic training curriculum is a structured program that prepares students to care for athletes’ health and performance. It covers anatomy, injury prevention, assessment, treatment, rehabilitation, and sports nutrition. Students learn to recognize different injuries, develop treatment plans, and use appropriate equipment and techniques. The curriculum combines classroom learning with hands-on clinical experience, often including internships. The goal is to equip future athletic trainers with the knowledge, skills, and professionalism necessary to support athletes safely and efficiently, whether on the field, in clinics, or in rehabilitation settings.
