In 2017, Jeff Weinstein started contracting with ATvantage as a young professional. It was his first solo position as an athletic trainer (AT) and he was excited to take on this opportunity that had autonomy but also provided support to grow, which many positions for young professionals tend to lack.

As a company that provides non-traditional work, advocacy, and resources for the modern AT, it is part of our mission to push the boundaries of the athletic training profession and champion a non-traditional attitude.

If you resonate with being a "modern AT" then you know that part of that identity is being curious in your own understanding and continuing to evolve to better serve your patients and the profession.

Health insurance, financial planning, and tax deductions for self-employed people are some of the most popular topics we get asked about.

However, there are a ton of resources available to support you, as there are plentiful upsides to self-employment, such as better tax deductions and more freedom over your financial choices.
