The Mission of the Athletic
Training Education Program at Radford University is to provide students from
Southwest Virginia, Appalachia, and the nation with the educational
opportunities necessary to become certified members of the athletic training
profession.
The program will provide students with the skills necessary to assess, provide initial treatment, and rehabilitate injuries that occur to physically active populations in a variety of practice areas. Consistent with the mission of the Department of Exercise, Sport and Health Education, the program will not only enhance the preparation of future professionals, but will do so with the intention of facilitating the growth of the athletic training profession in Radford, the surrounding communities and the Commonwealth of Virginia.
