Become a Athletic Training Aide!
Athletic Training Aides are vital to the success of athletic training programs. Aides work on a volunteer basis, putting time in both the athletic training facility and out on the sidelines of athletic contests. Mt. SAC offers introductory Athletic Training Classes and a Athletic Trainer Aide 1 Certificate. Students in the Mt. SAC Program/Classes will interact and receive mentoring from certified athletic trainers as well as athletic training students from Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE) accredited programs who are working towards athletic training degrees, certification and future work in the field.
Athletic training student aides from Mt. SAC have gone on to receive their athletic training degrees at universities across the country including California State University, Long Beach (CSULB), California State University Fullerton (CSUF), California Baptist University (CBU), University of La Verne (ULV), Azusa Pacific University (APU), San Diego State University, (SDSU), University of Hawaii (UH), California State University, Northridge (CSUN), Chapman University and many more. Our former students, after obtaining their undergraduate degree, have also gone into other health care professions including physical therapy, physician assistant, chiropractic, emergency medicine and massage therapy, to name a few.
