Board of Certification Exam
North Park University’s master of science in athletic training program will prepare you to sit for the Board of Certification (BOC) exam, a national exam which will qualify you to become an athletic trainer. Only students graduating from CAATE-accredited programs are eligible for the BOC exam. The BOC is the only accredited certification agency for athletic trainers in the United States, ensuring that athletic trainers are prepared to provide prevention, emergency care, diagnosis, and rehabilitation to individuals, in collaboration with physicians and other healthcare providers.
