I really don't refer to what I did in college as "cat training", but if you're meaning what training and education I had in college: I have a degree in Athletic Training. You take classes that involve anatomy, biomechanics, kinesiology, injury prevention, caring for injuries, modalities, taping classes, treating injuries, rehab techniques. Then after you get your degree (usually takes 4 years) that does not make you an Athletic Trainer. You must pass the NATABOC (National Athletic Trainers' Association Board of Certification) exam. This is a three part exam that most study for for 4 years or longer. After passing this exam you must get licensed by the state you work in. You can not practice Athletic Training without a license. To get your license in a state you must show proof that you have a degree in Athletic Training, show proof that you passed the NATABOC exam, get letters of recommmendation, and pass a background check. They don't give Athletic Training licenses to just anyone, since a majority of Athletic Trainer's work with HS aged kids they want to make sure they have no prior record. If you have any more questions please feel free to ask!
