About our Residency
The dates for NHMI's CAATE-Accredited Athletic Training Residency for 2023-2024 are July 24, 2023-July 12, 2024. The Residency is an opportunity for certified athletic trainers (Click Here for eligibility requirements & stipend package) to learn more in one year than they could hope to see in a career. Rotations with physicians and allied health professionals, research experience, and hands-on athletic training experience combine to improve the Residents' fundamental knowledge of human anatomy and physiology, understanding of medical care for various conditions and their ability to interact with physicians. In addition, Residents attend several dissection workshops, two special continuing education events - our Annual Symposium and our Orthopedic Winter Meeting.

At our Annual Symposium each fall, Residents participate in a cadaver dissection and anatomy review session, then attend a full day conference hearing experts relate the latest on topics of interest to sports medicine and rehabilitation professionals. The Winter Meeting gives the Residents a weekend resort experience complete with orthopedic continuing medical education, skiing and socializing with orthopedic surgeons.
