Athletic Trainer Jobs in Georgia: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a athletic trainer in Georgia?
To work as an athletic trainer in Georgia, you must hold a license issued by the Georgia Board of Athletic Trainers. Licensure requires graduating from a Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education-accredited program and passing the Board of Certification examination. Applications are submitted directly to the Georgia Board of Athletic Trainers under the Secretary of State's Professional Licensing Boards division. Most Georgia employers also expect current CPR certification before your start date.
How much do athletic trainers make in Georgia?
Athletic trainers in Georgia earn a median of about $64,590 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $48,320 for the lowest 10% to over $107,810 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire athletic trainers in Georgia?
Employers hiring athletic trainers in Georgia right now include Onelife Fitness, Life Time, and Crunch Fitness, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Georgia's large hospital-affiliated sports medicine networks and its concentration of Division I university programs generate some of the most consistent openings in the state.
Which Georgia cities have the most athletic trainer jobs?
Atlanta, Athens, and Savannah have the most athletic trainer openings in Georgia. Atlanta dominates because of its professional sports teams, major health systems, and corporate headquarters with on-site wellness programs, while Athens benefits from the University of Georgia's large athletic department, and Savannah draws demand from its growing network of outpatient sports medicine and orthopedic clinics.
Are there remote athletic trainer jobs in Georgia?
Yes, but they're rare. Athletic training is inherently hands-on, requiring direct patient evaluation and on-site coverage for practices and competitions. About 0% of athletic trainer openings tied to Georgia are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those positions are typically administrative or telehealth consultation roles rather than traditional clinical or sideline coverage positions.
How can I get hired as a athletic trainer in Georgia with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying to clinical rotation-to-hire programs at Georgia's hospital-affiliated sports medicine networks such as Emory Sports Medicine or Piedmont Orthopedics, which regularly convert students and recent graduates into staff positions. Secondary school district postings across metro Atlanta and suburban counties are also beginner-accessible and often sponsor new graduates. Lateral candidates from physical therapy aide or exercise physiology roles gain an edge by sitting for the BOC exam and securing a Georgia Board of Athletic Trainers license before applying.
Where can I find and apply to athletic trainer jobs in Georgia?
