All students will complete clinical rotations categorized by exposure to general medical experiences, varying levels of risk, a variety of different populations including genders, and protective equipment. In addition to being offered in the dynamic atmosphere of one of the fastest growing Christian universities in the western United States, CBU's ATEP offers you the following distinctive benefits: Diverse Clinical Experiences Students complete a minimum of eight (8) clinical experiences while in the two-year ATEP. Each experience will provide exposure to different professional athletic training settings. One of the strengths of this program is that the clinical sites provide athletic training students exceptional experiences that will enhance their learning and prepare them beyond the classroom. Individuals will serve as athletic training students in junior college, university, clinic, and hospital environments at various sites near the CBU campus. Professional Preparation CBU designed the ATEP to prepare students not only for the BOC, Inc. certification exam but also as highly skilled athletic trainers who possess the necessary knowledge and skills to meet the demands of this competitive profession. Once certified, students are qualified to work in secondary schools, colleges and universities, professional sports, sports medicine clinics, and industrial/military settings. Whole Person Care The Athletic Training Students (ATS) at CBU are trained to be allied health professionals who give comprehensive care to the person in need, not just the injury or illness. As a Christian university, we look at the example Jesus gave in modeling whole person care. Our ATSs will be taught to not only look at the physical impediment but also see the person that needs care. View more details on California Baptist University .
