AI Summary
- Enacts the Athletic Trainer Compact, an interstate agreement allowing licensed athletic trainers to practice across member states without obtaining separate licenses in each state, through a "compact privilege" system equivalent to licensure
- Establishes the Athletic Trainer Compact Commission, a government agency composed of all member states that have enacted the compact, to administer and implement the agreement and promulgate rules
- Requires athletic trainers to hold an unencumbered license, maintain current BOC (Board of Certification) certification, and have graduated from a CAATE-accredited program to qualify for compact privileges
- Preserves each state's regulatory authority to protect public health and safety, including the ability to take adverse actions (revocation, suspension, probation) against licensees, while requiring practitioners to follow the scope of practice laws in the state where the patient is located
