T2  - Study Guide for the Board of Certification, Inc.: Entry-Level Athletic Trainer Certification Examination, 4e
AB  - The  Board  of  Certification  (BOC)  examination  is  designed  to  assess  a  candidate's  knowledge  in  the  six  domains  of  athletic  training  as  defined  by  the  current  Role  Delineation  Study.  Historically,  this  exam  has  been  a  three-section  pen-and-paper  test  consisting  of  a  multiple-choice  section,  a  written  simulation  section,  and  a  practical  examination  section.  In  June  2007,  the  BOC  began  administering  the  test  as  a  completely  computerized,  integrated  examination.  Initially,  the  computer  examination  was  in  two  parts,  lasted  4  hours,  and  was  composed  of  a  multiple-choice  section  and  a  hybrid  questions  section  consisting  of  four  problem-based  scenarios  with  numerous  multimedia  questions.  Beginning  with  the  July/August  2009  window,  Part  I  was  composed  of  a  minimum  of  125  multiple-choice  questions,  15  unscored  multiple-choice  questions,  5  stand-alone  "alternative"  items,  and  2  five-item  focused  testlets;  Part  II  was  composed  of  four  hybrid  problems.  In  February  2010  the  BOC  announced  the  construction  of  the  examination  was  again  changing.  This  new  examination  format  contains  a  combination  of  175  scored  and  unscored  (experimental)  items.  The  items  include  multiple-choice  questions,  stand-alone  alternative-item  types,  and  focused  testlets  consisting  of  alternative  item  types.
