Phoenix College Student Athletic Training Program

The Phoenix College Athletic Department and Sports Medicine Staff is pleased to announce the development of the Student Athletic Training Program. This program will serve as the entry point to the education of students interested in any number of health care fields. Students interested in careers as athletic trainers, physicians, physical therapists, EMTs or other allied health care professions are encouraged to apply.

Head athletic trainer and assistant athletic director Lisa Ruiz-Gonzales states, "This program is a tremendous opportunity for students looking for a start in allied health care professions. In addition the program will allow us to increase student involvement in athletics and strengthen the athletic department in general."
