Hi, I accidentally came across your message. I am a college student pursuing some of the same goals as yourself. It is kind of bad news if you would like to become an ATC in a hurry. Even if you are a PT I have been told that you must go back and receive an education from an accredited Athletic Training program in order to sit for the national licensing exam. That is the best that I know. Good Luck. eddie --Previous Message-- : Hi, : I'm a recent pt graduate from England. It's : always been my plan to work in sports and I'm : currently trying to research about athletic : training. It's a job title that doesn't : exist over here. Can anybody tell me what : training I would need to do to become a : certified AT? Is there a short route as I'm : already a PT? : I'm also looking for any work or work : experience opportunities, particularly in : tennis, but I'm willing to work in pretty : much any sport. Does anyone have any ideas? : I'm hoping to move over to USA in March. : Thanks, Caroline :
