BILL NUMBER:S4499 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the education law, in relation to the licensure of athletic trainers Purpose: To create licensure for the profession of Athletic Training. Summary: This legislation updates the current laws that certify Athletic Trainers (ATs), however it maintains the requirement that ATs perform under the supervision of physicians. The bill establishes licensure for Athletic Trainers and it expands the definition of Athletic Training. Furthermore, it makes clear that Athletic Trainers can manage individuals with concussions or individuals involved in adaptive athletics. Since the practice of Athletic Training would now require a license, the legislation sets forth exemptions to allow students in accredited programs and other qualified licensees to perform services that would be protected upon enactment of this law. The bill also creates a continuing education requirement for licensed ATs.
