Practicum in Athletic Training

Practicum Courses

All practicum courses contain an intensive clinical rotation at an approved clinical site. The student must adhere to all ATEP and site-specific policies and procedures. Professional phase students access the ATEP policy and procedure manual through the University Blackboard system.   The didactic portion of each practicum course will provide evaluation of athletic training educational competencies and clinical proficiencies from previous semester’s coursework. Students will have the opportunity during class time to demonstrate clinical proficiency in skills learned prior to the course thus facilitating learning over time. In the clinical setting, students will observe the evaluation, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitative phases of injuries and illnesses. Demonstration of clinical proficiencies will occur under direct supervision of an approved clinical instructor; they will reflect content learned in current semester’s coursework. Students must have current Professional Rescuer Certification, and current PA State child abuse/criminal background /fingerprinting clearances for each practicum experience.
