The bill establishes the Athletic Trainer Licensure Compact, which facilitates the practice of athletic trainers across member states by allowing them to operate without obtaining multiple licenses. This compact aims to enhance public access to athletic training services while maintaining each state's regulatory authority to ensure public health and safety. Key provisions include mutual recognition of licenses, streamlined interstate practice, and the use of telehealth services. The compact also emphasizes cooperation among states in regulating athletic training practices and sharing licensure information. Member states must enact legislation that aligns with the compact's model language, maintain licensure for athletic trainers, and implement a criminal background check process for applicants.

Additionally, the bill creates the Athletic Trainer Licensure Compact Commission, which will oversee the compact's implementation and administration. The commission will consist of one commissioner from each member state and will have the authority to adopt rules, manage finances, and conduct investigations. The bill includes provisions for qualified immunity and indemnification for commission members and staff, protecting them from liability for actions taken within their duties. It also establishes a coordinated data system for sharing licensure data and adverse actions among member states, ensuring that the information is treated as authenticated business records in legal proceedings. The compact will take effect once adopted by seven states and includes provisions for severability and the resolution of disputes among member states.
