About OATH Program

The OATH Program was designed to aid Certified Athletic Trainers and Athletic Training Students studying and working in the state of North Carolina with assistance during times of hardship. The OATH Program offers aid in two different categories: Student & New Graduate Assistance, and Athletic Trainer Hardship Assistance.  

The Student & New Graduate Assistance category is designed to provide aid for those that qualify in the following scenarios: 

  • Student Athletic Trainers having difficulty with NATA & NCATA dues 

  • New Graduates (Graduated within the last year) having difficulty paying for their North Carolina state licensure (Licensure fees not covered by employer) 

The Athletic Trainer Hardship Assistance is designed to aid those that qualify in the following scenarios: 

  • Natural disaster impacting personal ability to perform your job (house fire, flooding, etc.) 

  • Natural disaster impacting professional ability to perform your job (lost necessary equipment in fire, flood, etc.) 

  • Unexpected budgetary issues not allowing for the procurement of equipment necessary to complete your job within state or federal requirements and not covered by your workplace (wet bulb malfunctions, AED breaks, etc.) 

If you would like to nominate a deserving person for an OATH Grant please email ncataoath@gmail.com with the persons name, contact information ( email, cell phone number) and why you feel this person would benefit from the grant. We will contact them with the application.
