Can person who is awaiting their Ohio AT license begin to work in the clinic while they are awaiting approval?
Yes, according to the AT section of the Ohio PT/OT/AT board. He/she can begin working, but CANNOT be function independently, or refer to him/herself as an athletic trainer. He/she is unlicensed regardless of other credentials such as ATC from NATABOC or licensure from another state. That individual cannot refer to himself/herself as an athletic trainer, ATC or document this in any way. In the State of Ohio, there is no grace period from the time an application is submitted to the date an Ohio license is issued.
