Welcome to Athletic Training

The mission of the Athletic Training Program at Ohio Northern University is to offer athletic training students the academic and professional services needed to become an entry-level certified athletic trainer and provide the university student-athlete with the highest quality of athletic health care. Our commitment is to the complete health and safe participation of Ohio Northern University intercollegiate student-athletes and provides athletic training students with a unique and comprehensive education and clinical foundation as it relates to the profession of athletic training. The groundwork of our program is to promote excellence in athletic training through scholarship, skill and professionalism.

Once a student has been accepted to the athletic training education program 'hands-on' athletic training clinical experiences must be completed, along with required coursework.Clinical experiences will be obtained in a variety of environments with athletic teams and at a local hospital or outpatient rehabilitation clinic.

During these times, athletic training students gain valuable knowledge and skills which will prepare them to successfully complete the athletic training curriculum and sit for the BOC Exam.
