Non-Director Positions
Over the past couple of years, we have pursued key priorities: regulation and scope of practice; refreshed AT branding and positioning; improved digitally-based communications; along with building a platform for evidence-based practice to secure additional third party insurance coverage for AT and to provide proof of the profession's competencies and efficacy. ​
​Our goal is to have contact with the Membership beyond registration and administrative activities, engaging with Members using new tools and platforms acquired and adapted during the pandemic. This has resulted in the Association launching a YouTube channel, podcasts and more digital offerings planned to meet that Member preference.​ ​
We are here to serve Members and the Public seeking the professional services of our competent, sports medicine rehabilitation specialists: Athletic Therapists.
