Welcome!!  The athletic training education program (ATEP) received its initial accreditation through the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs(CAAHEP)in April of 1999, and was recently reaccredited until 2011-2012. On July 1, 2006, CAAHEP no longer accredits athletic training education.  Instead, the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE) oversees accreditation for all ATEP programs.

  Arkansas State University was the first accredited athletic training education program in Arkansas. The ATEP has the capacity to place graduates in all fields of practice: secondary schools, colleges/universities, professional, clinical/industrial athletic training and in graduate schools for those interested in higher education careers in athletic training/sports medicine and other allied health professions.
