Fellow Professionals:

The NATA and NATA Foundation are proud to offer a one-day summit that will serve as a catalyst for conducting athletic training outcomes research in a systematic and directed manner.  The NATA has provided one million dollars to fund athletic training outcomes research for the next three years, beginning in 2007.  The purpose of the Summit is to: (a) identify athletic training outcome areas that will be funded, (b) identify outcome measures important to advancing athletic training clinical practice, and (c) provide information about the application process and deadlines for submitting pre-proposals and grant applications.  Registration to attend the Summit will be limited to 30 participants and is required by March 15, 2007.  No more than two individuals from the same institution or organization may register for the Summit.  For more information about and to register for the Summit, please contact the NATA Foundation at 1-214-637-6282, Ext. 142. We look forward to seeing you on May 18, 2007!
