Athletic Therapy specializes in the prevention, evaluation and management of neuro-musculoskeletal injuries (muscles, bones and joints, etc.) and medical conditions as they relate to athletics and physical activity to help athletes return to their sport or patients to return to an active lifestyle.  

 

The Athletic Therapy Certificate Program is accredited by the Canadian Athletic Therapists' Association and prepares you to achieve the professional designation of a Certified Athletic Therapist in Canada, enabling you to work with professional athletes as well as the active population.  

 

The Athletic Therapy Certificate includes practical or 'hands on' experiential education courses encompassing prevention, assessment and management of athletic injuries both on the field and in the clinic.  You will have the opportunity to work directly with both varsity level and professional level athletes.  Previous students have had the opportunity to work with professional teams such as the Toronto Argonauts, Hamilton Tigercats, National Ballet of Canada, Canada Basketball, Wheelchair Rugby Canada, and the Toronto FC Academy soccer club.
