The CAATE mission is “serving the public and profession by establishing and ensuring compliance with accreditation standards that facilitate quality outcomes, continuous improvement, innovation and diversity to enhance athletic training education.”
We received from feedback from program administration on a request for resources specific to the practical application of DEI and social justice specific to the CAATE Professional (DEI 1, DEI 2, and Standard 57) and Residency/Fellowship (Standards 14, 36, 37) Standards.
In response, the Education Committee, in collaboration with the DEI&LD Committee, developed the videos with the intention that stakeholders such as program administration, preceptors, and learners review the videos to create conversations and dialogue surrounding DEI in athletic training. We are hopeful this can be incorporated into your courses, professional development of preceptors, and other innovative methods. The videos demonstrate how the concepts of inequity, equity, equality, and justice can look in different settings and interactions such as in clinical education, in the classroom, and during patient care.
Take a look at the video series.
