Athletic Training Mission Statement
The mission of the Cedarville University Athletic Training
Education Program (ATEP) is to advance the Kingdom of
Christ by preparing entry-level athletic trainers, through diverse
learning experiences, to practice competently and professionally
throughout the world.
This is to be accomplished through an educational program that
practices the skills associated with the prevention, diagnosis, and
intervention of emergency, acute, and chronic medical conditions
involving impairment, functional limitations, and disabilities.
Students will be able to:
• Provide quality health care including prevention, diagnosis,
and intervention to patients and clients who participate in
physical activity.
• Utilize therapeutic techniques and equipment safely,
appropriately, and effectively.
• Instruct patients and clients in areas of prevention,
stewardship, and convalescence.
• Implement organizational skills to manage an athletic training
facility.
• Locate, interpret, and implement athletic training research.
• Conduct themselves professionally with Christlike
characteristics.
The athletic training major prepares students for a career as a
Certified Athletic Trainer (or ATC), which is the official credential
awarded when students successfully pass the certification exam
administered by the BOC. Cedarville’s athletic training program
meets the requirements set forth by the National Athletic Trainers’
Association (NATA) and the Commission on Accreditation of
Athletic Training Education (CAATE).
Personal Requirements
Athletic training requires a significant level of scientific and
clinical preparation. Prospective athletic training students are
encouraged to take college preparatory courses in high school,
including biology, chemistry, physics, and advanced math. An ACT
composite score of 24 (or SAT composite of 1100) or higher is
highly recommended.
Typically, the student who is interested in athletic training as
a potential career has a history of being involved in athletics
personally and may even wish to pursue participating in athletics
at the collegiate level. Students need to be aware that the (ATEP)
depends on the varsity athletic program at Cedarville as well as
high schools, colleges, and clinics in the community to provide
the primary “laboratory” experiences for the clinical education
component of the program. Therefore, attempting to participate in
varsity athletics while simultaneously pursuing the athletic training
major may prove to be a significant conflict of interest.
Students are, however, expected to model appropriate
stewardship of their physical bodies by being involved in a
consistent program of regular exercise and activity. A biannual one
and a half-mile run is used to evaluate the status of the student’s
fitness.
