Mission

Our first priority in the Athletic Training Education Program is to nurture individuals in their daily relationship with Jesus Christ. The second priority of the athletic training program at Sterling College is to provide student athletes with the best opportunity to participate in intercollegiate athletics in the safest and healthiest manner possible. It is the goal of the staff to help: prevent athletic related injuries, recognize, evaluate and assess injuries, provide first aid, treatment and rehabilitation on injuries and to council student athletes on the best medical resources to allow them to return to competition as soon as medically safe.
