Indiana's mix of large hospital systems, university athletic departments, and school district contracts means openings appear across a broad range of employer types throughout the state.
Which Indiana cities have the most certified athletic trainer jobs?
Indianapolis, Eagle Creek, and Carmel have the most certified athletic trainer openings in Indiana. Indianapolis drives the highest volume through its concentration of hospital-based sports medicine programs and professional and collegiate sports facilities, while university towns like Bloomington and West Lafayette generate consistent openings tied directly to Big Ten athletic programs and student health services.
Are there remote certified athletic trainer jobs in Indiana?
Yes, but they're rare. Certified athletic training is a hands-on clinical role that requires direct patient contact, so most positions are on-site by nature. About 0% of certified athletic trainer openings tied to Indiana are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those positions typically involve administrative coordination, telehealth triage, or injury prevention program management rather than direct clinical care.

The most realistic entry path is a graduate assistant or clinical rotation position at one of Indiana's universities, such as Indiana University, Purdue University, or Ball State University, which routinely place new graduates in supervised staff roles. Large health systems like Indiana University Health and Franciscan Health also hire entry-level athletic trainers into sports medicine clinic support roles. Completing your BOC exam before applying and holding a current Indiana state license puts you ahead of candidates who are still pending credentialing.
