Certified Athletic Trainers (ATCs) are allied health care professionals specifically educated to provide medical care to athletes and the physically active.

The American Medical Association (AMA) approved a resolution in 1998 calling for certified athletic trainers in all interscholastic athletic programs. The AMA recommends all schools with sports programs to establish "policies for first-aid, referral of injured participants, treatment, rehabilitation and certification for return to participation." Athletic trainers across the state carry out that role for many of New Jersey’s athletes.
