Bill Subjects

Athletic Trainers

Abstract

Existing law provides for the licensure and regulation of various professions and vocations by regulatory boards and entities within the Department of Consumer Affairs, including athlete agents. Existing law generally prohibits a person from practicing those professions and vocations unless the person is licensed by the appropriate regulatory board or otherwise meets prescribed requirements. This bill would prohibit a person from holding themselves out to be an athletic trainer or from using specified titles or terms to imply or suggest that the person is an athletic trainer unless they meet prescribed requirements, including that the person is certified by the Board of Certification for the Athletic Trainer, as specified. The bill would prohibit a person from holding themselves out to be an athletic trainer or use any of the specified titles if certain conditions are true, including that the person has an athletic trainer license or registration in another state that was disciplined or is otherwise restricted, as specified. If an employee's title is changed to comply with these provisions, the bill would prohibit the loss of the employee's employment status as a result of the title change, including, but not limited to, demotion, reclassification, or the loss of any other status or compensation related to the position.
