The Professional Masters of Athletic Training degree (MAT) at Utah Tech University is designed to prepare students to become athletic training professionals. Professional athletic training education uses a skills-based approach in both the classroom and clinical settings. Using a medical-based education model, athletic training students are educated to provide comprehensive patient care in five domains of clinical practice: prevention; clinical evaluation and diagnosis; immediate and emergency care; treatment and rehabilitation; and organization and professional health and well-being. The educational requirements for CAATE include acquisition of knowledge, skills and clinical abilities along with a broad scope of foundational behaviors of professional practice. Students complete an extensive clinical learning requirement that is embodied in the clinical integration proficiencies (professional, practice-oriented outcomes) as identified in the Athletic Training Education Competencies. The primary focus for the MAT program is to prepare students to sit for the Board of Certification Examination (BOC). Passage of the BOC examination is a requirement for licensure in most states. Eligibility for the BOC exam is contingent upon completion of a program accredited by CAATE that must instruct the Competencies within the curriculum. The MAT program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE).
