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
President, ATSNJ, Inc.
