Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ATC exam?
The ATC exam is the national certification examination created by the BOC for athletic trainers. It tests entry level knowledge and skills across all aspects of athletic training practice. The current version follows Practice Analysis 8 and is the only exam recognized nationwide to earn the ATC credential.
Who is eligible to take the BOC ATC exam?
Candidates must complete a CAATE accredited professional athletic training program or professional masters program. Program directors submit endorsement through the official AT102 form. International candidates can qualify through formal agreements with organizations such as ARTI in Ireland, BASRaT in the United Kingdom, or CATA in Canada after a full credential review.
What education do I need before sitting for the exam?
A masters degree from a CAATE accredited athletic training program is now required at the professional level. The program combines advanced coursework, laboratory practice, and extensive supervised clinical experience across multiple settings including colleges, high schools, clinics, and professional sports.
How do I apply for the ATC exam?
Create a profile on the BOC website, have your program director complete and submit the electronic AT102 endorsement form, pay the application fee, and then schedule through Meazure Learning once approved. Applications must arrive before the published deadline for each testing window.
What topics does the ATC exam cover?
The exam is divided into five major domains:
- Injury and Illness Prevention and Wellness Promotion (25%)
- Examination Assessment and Diagnosis (26%)
- Immediate and Emergency Care (20%)
- Therapeutic Intervention (24%)
- Healthcare Administration and Professional Responsibility (6%)
How do I prepare for the ATC exam?
Begin with the official BOC Practice Analysis 8 and role delineation study. Complete both BOC self assessment examinations, review the reference list, and practice all question formats. High volume practice with clinical scenarios through Prephow ATC question banks or study material is the most common successful strategy.
Do I need state licensure after passing the ATC exam?
Forty nine states and the District of Columbia require a state license or registration to practice as an athletic trainer. Passing the BOC exam makes you eligible to apply, but each state has its own application, background check, jurisprudence exam, and fee requirements.
Can international athletic trainers take the ATC exam?
Yes through the BOC International Arrangement. Candidates from partner countries have their education and experience evaluated. Any identified gaps must be completed through approved remediation before testing eligibility is granted. Passing grants full ATC certification recognized in the United States.
