President's Welcome
Welcome to the Athletic
Trainers’ Society of New Jersey, Inc! Whether you’re a seasoned
NJ-licensed athletic trainer or new to our state, a college student,
or someone who simply wants to learn more about our great profession,
this site has something for you!
For the
athletic training professional…
If you’re a practicing certified and licensed athletic trainer,
this site serves as a valuable resource of information. You’ll
find important documents such as the “Athletic Training Licensure
Act,” and the “Department of Education Law.” You’ll
also find information on how to nominate that special colleague or student
for a recognition award. Depending on the time of year, you’ll
read about the many activities the ATSNJ is involved in. From our annual
early spring educational conference, to our summertime golf outing,
to meeting with legislators, you’ll see we are indeed a very busy
organization. Don’t forget to take a few minutes to read through
the Hall of Fame section. You’ll be sure to gain an appreciation
of how far we’ve come in NJ, and come to know some of the people
that helped to get us here.
For the
athletic training student…
You’ll find applications for the ATSNJ scholarships awarded every
year at our annual conference. Be sure review the current athletic training
laws in NJ, as this will be important information to know when taking
your first job.
For our
guests who want to learn more…
You’ll find information on the unique healthcare provided by licensed
athletic trainers, the education and qualifications necessary to become
an athletic trainer, and links to other organizations such as the National
Athletic Trainers’ Association.
Should you have
any questions, please contact myself or any member of our Executive
Council. Enjoy your visit!
Sincerely,
Robb Rehberg PhD, ATC, CSCS, NREMT
