25th
Annual SEATA Athletic Training Student Symposium
by Ray Castle & R.T. Floyd
The
2010 SEATA Athletic Training Student Symposium was held
on February 4-6 at the Crowne Plaza Ravinia in Atlanta,
GA. The 25th anniversary symposium included a
slight change in the format with the sessions beginning
on Thursday evening and ending just after noon on
Saturday. This historic meeting with three
different tracks broke all previous attendance records. The universal theme
of the symposium for underclassmen was Foundations in
Athletic Training, with two specific “educational
tracks”. The senior level workshop theme was
“Competencies in Athletic Training”, which is
designed as an examination refresher course for those
students entering the final stages of preparation for
the BOC certification examination. This year’s meeting
had just over 700
students from nine of the 10 NATA districts across the
United States attending the symposium.. The athletic
training students represented 62 athletic training
education programs (ATEPs) from 34 states.
The Foundations in Athletic Training section, directed
by Ray Castle, PhD, ATC of Louisiana State University
was divided into two educational “tracks” allowing
athletic training students to participate in a track
closely linked with their current educational level in
their athletic training curriculum. Track “A” focused
on “Prevention, Evaluation, and Initial Management of
Athletic Injuries” while Track “B” focused on “Therapeutic
Exercise, Modalities, and Professional Development”.
Each educational track incorporated in-depth lectures
and hands-on laboratory activities for the students.
The symposium featured 55 outstanding faculty members
with expertise in teaching and clinical practice from
throughout the southeast and outside of District IX.
The two tracks had a combined attendance of
approximately 408 athletic training students. The laboratory sessions
for both tracks were coordinated by Amanda Andrews, PhD, ATC of Troy University.
The Competencies in Athletic Training section was
directed by R.T. Floyd, EdD, ATC of The University of
West Alabama. Special effort was made to address major
areas felt to be important in preparing for the BOC
examination. Established leaders in athletic training
education presented on numerous topics, which included
the BOC Competencies, each of the major body areas,
therapeutic modalities, rehabilitation,
organization/administration, psychosocial
intervention/referral, pharmacological considerations
and general medical conditions. Additionally, students
were provided in advance of the symposium an online
computerized mock examination composed by the faculty.
The Competencies in Athletic Training section was
attended by 293 athletic training
students.
The
SEATA Student Senate
held its meeting at the Student Symposium held in
Atlanta, Georgia.
|
In addition to the general sessions, SEATA held its
annual
Clinical Case Study Presentation contest for
athletic training students. An open
invitation was provided to all athletic training
students to submit clinical case report
abstracts for presentation at the 25th Annual
SEATA Athletic Training Student Symposium. All
abstracts were evaluated under a blind-review
process that selected the top 25 ranked
abstracts for Free Communications Poster Session
presentation, and the top 15 ranked abstracts
have been invited to present their case study in
one of three moderator-lead sessions.
The 25 submissions will be evaluated to
determine the highest scoring clinical study in
each of the following areas:

The Saturday morning breakfast included recognition of

Training Undergraduate Scholarship Award Winners and
recognition of sponsors for the athletic training
student symposium.
The SEATA Scholarship Committee presented the 2010
undergraduate scholarships. This year’s recipient
of the SEATA Memorial Undergraduate Scholarship
was Jessica Daniels of Northern Kentucky University,
Jensine Jernigan of the University of Alabama and
Elizabeth Wesselman of Northern Kentucky
University received the Jim Gallaspy
Student Leadership Scholarship. The
Scholarship Committee is proud of these exemplary
individuals who have succeeded in perpetuating the
standards of excellence exemplified by athletic
trainers. Congratulations to our 2010 winners.
The symposia was a tremendous success, due in large part
to our corporate support from the following:
SEATA EXECUTIVE PARTNER
SEATA COMMITTEE PARTNERS
Workshop Partners
Clinical Education Partners
Lecture Partners
The
NATA Research & Education Foundation exhibit was also available for the participants to learn more
about the Foundation and pick up copies of Grant
Information Summaries of recent research it has funded.
This year also marked the Inaugural SEATA Quiz Bowl
which was held on Friday evening and coordinated by
Eric J. Fuchs, DA, ATC, EMT
of Eastern Kentucky University. Seventeen teams
from athletic training education programs in SEATA
participated. The
University of Florida won the 2nd Annual Quiz Bowl winners and
will represent District IX at
the
2nd Annual NATA Quiz Bowl
in Philadelphia, PA
The SEATA Quiz Bowl Committee which consisted of
Dr. Fuchs, Hanna Clark, MS, ATC, and Matt Hoch, MS, ATC,
would like to thank all the contestants, their faculty
representatives, and everyone that supported the event.
The inaugural SEATA Quiz Bowl was a huge success with
twelve athletic training programs represented in the
competition and over three hundred people in the audience.
All seventeen teams put forth a terrific effort making it
a very competitive competition.
Please help make next year’s SEATA Quiz Bowl bigger and
better. If your school did not enter a team in this
year’s competition, be sure to get a team together and
join us next year. The SEATA Quiz Bowl Committee is
already working on further improvements and anticipates that
next year’s competition will generate more teams, more
rivalry, and more fun. Again, thank you to everyone who
supported this year’s quiz bowl and please join us again
next year for a chance to represent SEATA at the
National Quiz Bowl.
Next year’s symposium will again feature the
Competencies in Athletic Training section for seniors as
well as the two tracks for all other students focusing
on Foundations of Athletic Training tracks.
Students should plan on attending this event scheduled
for February 3-5 or 10-12, 2011 in Atlanta. Please visit the SEATA website, and also the NATA
News for more details on both events. |
