- Historical note: In the spring of 2002, the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP) accredited the Fort Lewis College Athletic Training Education Program. Athletic training is one of four options available to exercise science majors, and is specifically geared toward students who are interested in sports injury evaluation and rehabilitation and who seek professionally certification as an athletic trainer. Starting in 2004, students must graduate from an accredited athletic training program to be eligible to sit for the National Athletic Trainers' Board of Certification examination. Fort Lewis College joins the University of Northern Colorado as the only accredited athletic training education programs in the state. New Mexico also has just two accredited athletic training programs - at the University of New Mexico and New Mexico State University. There are 165 accredited programs in the United States, of which about eighty percent are located on the East Coast.
