GILBERT, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), the worldwide leader in fitness, performance, and corrective exercise education, has partnered with the National Basketball Athletic Trainers Association (NBATA) to become its official education partner.

The Athletic Trainers that make up the NBATA work with some of the greatest athletes in the world, and they require the highest standards for evidence-based training methodologies, said Laurie McCartney, President of the National Academy of Sports Medicine.

As a longtime advocate for and user of NASM education, I know how effective and beneficial the NASM Corrective Exercise and Performance Enhancement Specializations are for athletic training, said Aaron Nelson, Chairman of the National Basketball Athletic Trainers Association and Vice President of Player Care and Performance for the New Orleans Pelicans. NASM education has long been valued amongst our membership, so this partnership is a natural fit.

Both courses are 100% online, which allows for flexible learning schedules that fit into a busy Athletic Trainers lifestyle.
