Athletic Training Resume

About This Resume Template

An athletic training resume should showcase your clinical skills, certifications, and hands-on experience working with athletes to prevent and treat injuries.

What to Include

In addition to the standard resume sections (contact info, summary, work experience, education, and skills), a strong athletic training and sports medicine resume should include: clinical experience, certifications (BOC Certified Athletic Trainer), CPR/AED credentials, sport-specific experience, and any research or continuing education.
