Burnout is nothing new in the athletic training profession. As ATs we enter into it with big hopes of what it could be and then often find ourselves exhausted and depleted from the long hours and outrageous expectations.

When we say we support your other passions, we mean it! We're here to make work work for you and this can be highlighted by AT, Brett Hinton's story. Brett has been at his site, Monterey Trail in Elk Grove, California for the past 7 years.

In 2021, ATvantage acquired a contract to provide athletic training services for San Diego Unified School District which included Kearny High School. Finding an AT that is a good match for each site is one of our first tasks when signing new clients, however in this case we were fortunate enough that the current AT there was the perfect fit.

Conflict is an inevitable part of life, and can be an especially tricky thing to navigate when it appears in the workplace. Conflict resolution is an important skill for any workplace as conflicts can arise between coworkers, between team members and their superiors, and between coworkers and clients.

Something we're most passionate about is keeping athletic trainers (ATs) working in a profession they love even when their life circumstances change. This was the situation with AT, Megan Skiles, who came to ATvantage needing more flexibility in her schedule.

There's nothing wrong with a traditional career path, but it doesn't have to be the only one. There are many reasons to work outside of traditional employment and we champion the many reasons at ATvantage; whether it's more flexibility, exposure, or working in a way that fits the needs of where you're at in your career as an athletic trainer.

In an effort to continually find quantitative ways to value the work of Athletic Trainers (ATs), we lean heavily on documented encounters throughout the year to generate a return on investment (ROI) for our school district clients.
