This three-year certificate program can be completed alongside either the Bachelor of Arts (BA) or Bachelor of Science (BSc) degrees in Kinesiology & Health Science. Athletic Therapy focuses on preventing, assessing, and treating neuro-musculoskeletal injuries (affecting muscles, bones, and joints) and related medical conditions in athletic and active individuals, helping them return to sports or daily activities. The Canadian Athletic Therapists' Association accredits this program, which qualifies graduates to become Certified Athletic Therapists in Canada, working with both professional athletes and the general active population. The curriculum features hands-on training in injury prevention, evaluation, and treatment, with clinical and field experience. Students gain practical experience working with varsity and professional athletes, including opportunities with organizations like the Toronto Argonauts, Hamilton Tiger-Cats, National Ballet of Canada, Canada Basketball, Wheelchair Rugby Canada, and Toronto FC Academy.
