Good afternoon. My name is Eric Streeter. To introduce myself, I am currently the Clinical Education Coordinator and athletic trainer for football at Millikin University in Decatur, Illinois. I am also in my fourth year as a Regional Representative in the Illinois Athletic Trainers Association.
President Rochester has asked me to address you all today about the StarTRACKS Leadership Development program, which the NATA began in June of last year. StarTRACKS is a self-study program for athletic trainers wishing to create, improve, or refine their leadership skills. The curriculum is broken down into four areas: Leadership, Management, Guiding the Profession, and Strategic Thinking. Each of these areas is broken down into specific goals, with specific associated content/assignments to accomplish each of these goals. The materials associated with these assignments include books, other readings, general sessions and workshops at the NATA Annual Meeting and Clinical Symposium, the BOC Regulatory Conference, and public speaking. Participants are expected to complete the program in two years.

The Athletic Trainers' Equal Access to Medicare Act of 2009 (HR 1137) has been introduced into the House of Representatives. This bill would improve patient access to athletic trainers, allow physician choice of a wider range of qualified health professionals, and restore the ability of athletic trainers to work incident-to a physician. Contact your member of the House today and encourage them to co-sponsor H.R. 1137. For more information go to the NATA's Legislative Alert Center. |
