Life of an AT summary:
National Athletic Trainer Association, or NATA offers several
resources related to athletic trainers education including the latest
changes in higher education. The NATA Executive Committee for
Education presents the Evidence-based Practice in Athletic Training
web-based course. This course was made by a team in evidence-based
practice, supported by the Old Dominion University Research
Foundation, and funded through the NATA. The ATrack is a powerful
database that manages a students test data for their entire time.
ATrack is the answer to scattered paperwork and missing test records.

The way that one uses ATrack is, they are given a username and
password, as students. They document and trail their data by logging
each current practice or follow up check up. After logging in they may
write the progression of the success of the injury or any additional
problems. All data is logged and saved, accessible by the teachers and
documented in seconds. This is the future of Higher Education in the
Athletic Trainer field.
