Area of Science:

Sports Medicine
Allied Health Professions

Background:

Advanced degrees in athletic training signify commitment.
Limited understanding exists regarding athletic trainers leaving the profession after postprofessional programs.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate reasons why athletic trainers leave the profession after completing advanced training in a postprofessional athletic training program (PPATP).

Main Methods:

Qualitative study utilizing online data collection.
Twelve PPATP graduates who are no longer primarily employed as athletic trainers participated.
Data were analyzed using a general inductive approach with measures for trustworthiness.

Main Results:

Two main themes emerged: departure from athletic training and partial continuance in the field.
Reasons for departure included decreased recognition of value and work-life imbalance.
Perceived lack of value stemmed from low salaries and long, inconsistent work hours.

Conclusions:

Most participants intended to remain in athletic training post-PPATP.
Career thoughts of leaving arose during clinical experiences or early employment.
Inadequate compensation and challenging work schedules were primary drivers for departure.
