A bill for an act enacting the athletic trainer compact.

This bill enacts the athletic trainer compact for Iowa, allowing licensed athletic trainers from Iowa to practice in other participating states without obtaining separate licenses in each state. It creates mutual recognition of licenses among member states to increase public access to athletic training services, reduce administrative burdens for professionals, and support military families by facilitating easier interstate practice. The compact includes provisions for sharing disciplinary information, using telehealth, and preserving each state’s authority to regulate practice and protect public health and safety.
