Executive Committee on Education (ECE)
Proposals and Recommendations
2012 MAATA Annual Business Meeting
Investigate the reformulation of the ECE and its committees to a
broader structure to:

Identify and promote model practice in education

Serve as a forum for special interest groups related to
academic faculty, clinical education, post professional
education and continuing education and

facilitate scholarship and education.
2012 MAATA Annual Business Meeting
The NATA with support from the Strategic Alliance should
conduct a detailed analysis specifically focused on
professional education in athletic training that will be
completed by June 2014.
A key outcome of this analysis will be a determination of
the most appropriate professional degree to position
athletic trainers to provide positive patient outcomes and
ensure the longevity of the profession of athletic training.
2012 MAATA Annual Business Meeting
The NATA, in collaboration with the
Strategic Alliance, should examine issues
surrounding transition to clinical practice
for newly certified athletic trainers, both
prior to and after certification.
2012 MAATA Annual Business Meeting
The NATA should transition the
responsibilities for accreditation of postprofessional graduate degree programs and
residency programs to the
Commission on Accreditation of Athletic
Training Education (CAATE).
2012 MAATA Annual Business Meeting
The NATA Board of Directors is undertaking a
comprehensive
analysis of the title ATHLETIC TRAINER to
determine if this term
is the best description of who we are, and
what we do?
2012 MAATA Annual Business Meeting
•Does this term allow our profession to maximize the
strategic outcomes of Vision Quest?
•Whatever the outcome we as professionals must
continue to use proper terminology in our day to day
communications with ourselves and our outside
stakeholders if this is to be successful.
2012 MAATA Annual Business Meeting
The Procedure:
•There has been no predetermined outcome of this investigation!!!
•This process is being lead by incoming NATA President Jim Thornton and Russ
Richardson D10 Director.
•It will involve an outside consultant to assist us.
•It will seek out a reasoned and thoughtful solution to this challenge base on the best
evidence and as much as possible without the emotion that has tainted other
investigations.

Questions or Discussions
On This Important Issue???
2012 MAATA Annual Business Meeting
Rotation for the Site of our
Annual Business Meeting & Clinical Symposium
2012 MAATA Annual Business Meeting
Rationale:
1. To allow for a rotating site of our annual meeting to
allow all regions of the district the opportunity to
host the MAATA Annual Meeting.
2. To better ensure financial stability with regards to our
annual meeting by designating the Cavalier Hotel as
the Preferred Hotel of the MAATA.
2012 MAATA Annual Business Meeting
For the years 2014-16 the meeting will be held at the Cavalier. In 2017 the
meeting would be moved to a southern portion of the district (Charlotte, NC,
Greenville, SC and beach locations in southern North Carolina and South
Carolina). From 2018-2020 the meeting would return to the Cavalier. In 2021
the meeting would move to a western portion of the District (western VA,
western NC and West Virginia). The district would negotiate directly with the
Cavalier during those years that the meeting is held at the Cavalier. The site
selection committee would, with the assistance of the NATA Meeting Planner
(at no cost to the district), bring potential sites to the membership who would
then vote/select the site during those years that the meeting is not held at the
Cavalier.
2012 MAATA Annual Business Meeting
This proposal was presented to the district
council for consideration and discussion.
The 3-1-3-1 as outlined passed
overwhelmingly.
