It may be advantageous for you as a preceptor to be familiar with the current curriculum map. The following gives you a look at the coursework that each athletic training student must complete in order to graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Athletic Training. The instructional map may be similar to what you endured as an athletic training student. The courses that are highlighted in yellow are classes that are taught specifically by the ATEP faculty. If you are interested in the possibility of becoming an adjunct instructor in the program, please let me know.

• First year students concentrate on the academic core at Union and take prerequisite coursework for entry in the athletic training education program, including introduction to sports medicine, medical terminology, first aid and cpr, and elementary nutrition.
• Second year students enter the first clinical sequence and focus on the applied sciences that provide the foundation for continued study of human processes.
• Third year students enter the third and fourth clinical sequences, with coursework that is primarily focused on the ATEP curriculum.
• The fourth year students enter the 5th and 6th clinical sequences which incorporate a capstone experience. At this point in the curriculum, Union University's athletic training students are functioning as directed and supervised student assistants with specific sports assignments. Clinical VI includes a series of practice tests for BOC preparation and an assessment of each clinical proficiency in the 5th edition educational competencies.
