COMMUNITY

Sustained Outreach | Mutual Respect | Sense of Community

Athletic Trainers often find their way to the industrial setting outside of the traditional methods. We understand the difficulty industrial ATs face when it comes to growing their professional community. Your company shouldn't be the only place you can go for mentorship, community, and fellowship. With limited recognition in traditional AT organizations, IATS is an industrial focused community where ATs from all walks of life can grow together, share resources, and realize their full potential!

Our Community & Member Engagement Committee is the home for all things social and community building. With programs that target young professionals and new athletic trainers like the mentorship program and IATS Connect, IATS ensures that ATs feel they have a place to ask any questions no matter how silly. Community also facilitates the in-person and virtual engagement events from state and local mixers to our annual member social, all with the goal of showing ATs appreciation and care.

The Community Committee meet every second Tuesday at 6pm Central. Meeting links are in the Member community on Discord
