PY - 2020 T2 - Study Guide for the Board of Certification, Inc.: Athletic Trainer Certification Examination, 5e AB - Upon inception in 1969, the Board of Certification, Inc. (BOC), became an entity of the professional membership organization of the National Athletic Trainers’ Association (NATA) and as such was solely responsible for certification of athletic trainers. However, in 1989, the BOC transitioned into an independent not-for-profit corporation to provide a certification program for athletic trainers and recertification standards for maintaining status as a certified athletic trainer. The BOC is currently the only accredited certification granting association for athletic trainers in the United States. The BOC is governed by an eight-member board of directors consisting of five certified athletic trainers, one licensed physician, one person from the general public, and one member of a corporation or educational institution.
