Maintaining Accreditation

Responsibilities

Maintaining accreditation with the BOC is a simple and easy annual process. Active BOC Approved Providers have three responsibilities:

Post all programs to the program directory at least 10 calendar days prior to the start of a program. (*Note - The software will NOT allow you to post an event if it is less than 10 calendar days from the event. This keeps BOC Approved Providers within their accreditation requirements, and ensures appropriate planning and adequate program promotion time.)
Pay your annual fee (*The window to pay is November to December 31). *If your fee is not paid within this window, your BOC Approved Provider status will automatically expire.*
Complete an annual report (*The window to complete automatically opens once the annual fee is paid; the annual report is due by March 31). **If your annual report is not submitted by March 31, your BOC Approved Provider status will automatically expire. To facilitate your annual report ONE past program will be randomly selected for review. Regardless of whether you had an CE events in the previous calendar year, you are still required to verify this by clicking on "Annual Report" in your BOC Approved Provider dashboard. If you do not click on this link and confirm, your provider account will expire on March 31, the date Annual Reports are due.

Annual Fees and Late Fees

Annual fees and late fees will be based on the total Continuing Education Units (CEUs) claimed in a previous year (newly approved BOC Approved Providers will begin at Tier 3 pricing.)

A late fee is applied in the case of a late renewal. The amount is based on the assessed annual fee based on the applicable tier. For example, if a Tier 3 BOC Approved Provider wishes to maintain an active status but is past due with their renewal fee, their total late fee amount would be $355.

Annual Fees 

Tier	Number of CEUs reported by ATs	2023 Approved Provider Annual Fee	Late Fee
1	≥ 10,000	$1,000	$100
2	500-9,999	$500	$50
3	≤ 499	$325	$30

(Effective beginning in calendar year 2023 - collection window will be from November - December 2022 for the upcoming year)

 
Benefits of Tiers
Tier 1 – BOC360 CE and AT demographic reports (type of CE, dates CE taken, popular searches) and 10% off a mailing list order.
Tier 2 - BOC360 CE and AT demographic reports (type of CE, dates CE taken, popular searches).
Tier 3 – no additional benefits, but can pay to upgrade to a higher tier to receive those benefits.

Renewal Fee: Late Fee and Penalty

The renewal fee payment deadline each year is December 31 for the upcoming year. BOC Approved Providers may pay late and retain an Active status but will be assessed a late fee with the below parameters applied:
• Late Fee: Applied to the renewal fee beginning 01/01. See table above for fee amounts.
• No Exceptions: As of January 15th, BOC Approved Providers will no longer be able to pay their renewal fee and will automatically expire. If expired, a provider may be reinstated by electing to complete an initial application and pay the application fee .

Renewal Fee is Non-Refundable:
The renewal fee must be paid, regardless of whether a BOC Approved Provider elects to offer CE programs during the current year. No refund will be issued.
**Please see Policies & Procedures for complete information on non-compliance, status changes, discipline and critical deadlines.

Additional Duties and Basic Expectations

In addition to the stated three responsibilities above, there are several basic expectations the BOC has of every BOC Approved Provider. As a BOC Approved Provider, you must:

Comply with the "Standards for BOC Approved Providers" (Standards) and "Policies & Procedures for BOC Approved Providers" (Policies & Procedures).
Respond to all BOC staff inquiries and customer complaints.
Not assign or transfer your approved provider number to another individual or organization.

Program Directory

The program directory provides an easy and effective method for Athletic Trainers to find continuing education units they need for certification. Every Category A program available to Athletic Trainers in the United States can be found in this searchable directory. Programs may be showcased on this directory either by demand, through paid sponsorship, or by distinguished reviews from Athletic Trainers who have previously taken the program. Click here to visit the program directory.

Non-Compliance Result: Failure to upload programs to the directory at least 10 calendar days prior to the start of the program will result in discipline. The program directory will not allow a BOC Approved Provider to upload programs with a start date that is less than 10 calendar days away. At this point, you must contact the BOC for assistance. This instance will be documented in your profile. If this occurs twice in a calendar year, you will be placed on probation.

What Providers Can Expect of the BOC

Previously, policy changes were made on a rolling basis. Beginning July 2021, changes to AP program policies will only be made twice a year: January and/or July. Any changes will be thoroughly communicated to stakeholders in January and/or July, as appropriate. However, changes will not go into effect until the following year (January and/or July) but no earlier than one year. For example, if a policy change is announced in January of 2022, it will not go into effect until January 2023.

Annual Fee and Annual Report

The annual fee is collected from November through December 31 each year. Should a BOC Approved Provider neglect to pay the fee during this window, their status will expire (see “Status Change - Expired” below for further explanation).

The ability to submit your annual report is triggered by payment of your annual fee. Completion of your annual report is due March 31 each year. Should a BOC Approved Provider neglect to complete their annual report, or if they are found to be non-compliant for two successive years, their status will expire (see Status Explanations to the left for further explanation.) To facilitate your annual report ONE past program will be randomly selected for review. Regardless of whether you had an CE events in the previous calendar year, you are still required to verify this by clicking on "Annual Report" in your BOC Approved Provider dashboard. If you do not click on this link and confirm, your provider account will expire on March 31, the date Annual Reports are due.

It is important to note there may be one or more items in your annual report earmarked as a “suggestion” or designated as “non-compliant”. A “suggestion” from the BOC denotes an area of importance in creating quality educational programs and is designed to help educate and guide a BOC Approved Provider. An item that is marked “non-compliant” denotes a critical area in creating quality educational programs. Please read more on non-compliance to understand the consequence of not meeting that area satisfactorily.

Non-compliance

It’s important to know that a full list of all policies and procedures for BOC Approved Providers are found in the "Policies & Procedures” section of the website. However, we have organized this section according to the items of critical importance. This provides a snapshot of all items that would result in discipline. Examine this list throughout the development and production of each educational program.

What is it?

To facilitate your annual report ONE past program will be randomly selected for review. Regardless of whether you had an CE events in the previous calendar year, you are still required to verify this by clicking on "Annual Report" in your BOC Approved Provider dashboard. If you do not click on this link and confirm, your provider account will expire on March 31, the date Annual Reports are due.

Items of non-compliance denote critically important areas relevant in creating quality educational programs. Should a BOC Approved Provider not meet these critical expectations, their annual report will be denied placing them on Probation (first offense) or Expired status (consecutive second offense). A full explanation of status changes is below. As you develop your educational programs, keep the items of non-compliance in mind. Non-compliance items listed below are solely related to your annual report. (There are additional areas of non-compliance aside from the annual report; to view these, please see our Policies & Procedures page.)

Study the list below to develop your programs to specification:

Annual Report Non-Compliance

Previously, there were several administrative requirements identified as items of non-compliance. For example, if a BOC Approved Provider did not include all seven items required on promotional materials or five items required on their certificates, they were marked as non-compliant and penalized, moving status to either Probation or Expired.

These administrative requirements will remain but the punitive consequence will be removed. The new focus on compliance will shift from a focus on the administrative aspects of CEU offerings to those items that most impact educational quality, such as the practice gap, learning objectives and participant assessment. For details, please refer to the below chart:

*Note: Items that were formally marked as non-compliant: These items are still required, however, the consequence of omission has been reduced. If items are omitted, BOC will remind BOC Approved Providers of the requirements, recognizing this to be a learning opportunity rather than a punitive event.

*These items are STILL required to appear, but do not carry punitive consequences.

Previously inconsequential items that will now put a BOC Approved Provider in a non-compliant status are:

Previously inconsequential items that will now put a BOC Approved Provider in a non-compliant status are:

Required CE Program Document	Required Minimum Acceptance Level Description
Practice Gap	Explains the observed practice and what the practice should be. This is supported by the literature. The Gap should answer all of the following: What isn’t the AT doing that they should be doing? What doesn’t the AT know that this program will provide them? What is the patient’s unmet need? *If each bullet point is not addressed, practice gap is non-compliant.
Clinical Bottom Line	Summary of the evidence that identifies the clinical recommendation of the intervention outlined in the learning objectives. *If summary does not concisely explain recommendation of intervention, it is non-compliant.
Learning Objectives	Create three to four measurable learning objectives that define the knowledge and/or skills an AT is expected to acquire by completion of the CE event. *Learning objectives that are not measurable are non-compliant.
Participant Assessment	Each learning objective must have an appropriate, corresponding strategy for learning measure in the participant assessment. *If the participant assessment is not aligned with the learning objectives, it is non-compliant.

*For detailed explanation please reference Policies & Procedures.

Status Explanations

A provider can have one of three statuses: Active, Active-Probation and Expired.

Active - Illustrates a provider in good standing: 1) annual fee paid 2) annual report completed and 3) programs uploaded to the program directory within 10 calendar days of start date.

Active-Probation – This is merely a warning status. A provider in this status may still offer CEUs for the year. The BOC does not require an action or response by the provider at the time of decision. It is highly suggested the AP reviews non-compliant items to ensure future programs are adjusted accordingly. Note: Athletic Trainers do not see your probation status. Providers will see this status when logging into BOC360 .

A BOC Approved Provider will enter probation immediately upon a BOC decision based on non-compliance. This status remains until a successful outcome of a subsequent annual report. For example, if a BOC Approved Provider is found to be non-compliant on the annual report in early 2021, the probationary status will remain until the following annual report. If the annual report is accepted without any items in non-compliance, status will revert to active in early 2022 upon BOC decision to approve the annual report.

Expired – Means the provider may not offer Category A CEUs and may not upload programs to the program directory (access is revoked). Several conditions will prompt an expired provider status.

Condition 1:
A provider is on probation from a previous year and is found to be non-compliant on a subsequent annual report.

Condition 2:
The annual fee was not paid within the November to December 31 window.

Condition 3:
The annual report was not completed within the November to March 31 window.

Recourse
If you are in Expired status, you may offer Category D CEUs (please see Categories ).

As recourse, a BOC Approved Provider may re-apply for accreditation by completing an initial application and paying the initial application fee.

Checklist for Compliant Programming

In educational program development, it’s recommended that educators adopt a “backwards design” approach. Begin by creating a needs analysis or “practice gap” and then define the skills (i.e. the learning objectives) participants will gain upon event conclusion. These two critical steps will work to define scope and specific targets to keep your program on track.

From this point, continue to develop documentation to track individual learning (participant assessment) and measurement tools to help improve program quality (program evaluation).

THINGS TO DO

Defining the Scope

Determine Practice Gap and Educational Need - Identify the knowledge, competency or performance gap for the program. What is it that Athletic Trainer don’t know or what aren’t they doing in practice?

To identify a professional practice gap, ask:

What is the practice-based problem?
How do you know it is a problem?
What data do you have to validate the problem?
What is the reason the problem exists?

Develop Measurable Learning Objectives - Use Bloom’s Taxonomy to create an educational framework for the program and define the knowledge or skills the participants are expected to acquire.

Check out this resource and note the following tips:

Examples of verbs associated with each level of learning.
Examples of objectives associated with each level of learning.
Recommended target levels of learning based on your target audience (i.e. prior knowledge, level of expertise within a specified area, etc).

Determine Delivery and Timing - The delivery may influence the objectives. Will your program be delivered virtually or face to face (F2F)? Will your program be delivered asynchronously (not at the same time, on demand) or synchronously (at the same time, live)? For example, it would not be appropriate or logical to have an objective “Perform this hip flexor stretch in order to …” in a virtual asynchronous event. This particular objective requires the program faculty to actually watch, in real time (synchronously), a participant perform an action in order to adequately assess someone’s ability to perform.

Determine Topic and Content - Ensure the program content aligns with the latest edition of the practice analysis and is offered at or above entry-level knowledge and skill for Athletic Trainers. The practice analysis defines the current knowledge, skills and abilities required for practice in the athletic training profession.

Athletic Training Practice Domains: Athletic training practice is covered through five domains identified in the practice analysis latest edition. The practice analysis identifies essential knowledge and skills for the athletic training profession and is updated every five-to-six years. The five practice domains are identified below.

Injury and Illness Prevention and Wellness Promotion: Promoting healthy lifestyle behaviors with effective education and communication to enhance wellness and minimize the risk of injury and illness

Examination, Assessment and Diagnosis: Implementing systematic, evidence based examinations and assessments to formulate valid clinical diagnoses and determine patients’ plan of care
Immediate and Emergency Care: Integrating best practices in immediate and emergency care for optimal outcomes
Therapeutic Intervention: Rehabilitating and reconditioning injuries, illnesses and general medical conditions with the goal of achieving optimal activity level based on core concepts using the applications of therapeutic exercise, modality devices and manual techniques
Health Care Administration and Professional Responsibility: Integrating best practices in policy construction and implementation, documentation and basic business practices to promote optimal patient care and employee well-being

Health Care Education Clarification : If program content incorporates tasks from the practice analysis in a substantive manner or has a health care education focus, it may qualify for CEUs. If the program content addresses pedagogy or improving the skill of teaching, or assessing participant learning outcomes, it does not qualify for CEUs. For example, programs related to teaching a clinical skill, documentation or communication involve tasks in the current practice analysis and qualify for CEUs. Curriculum design, however, does not represent tasks in the current practice analysis so does not qualify for CEUs.

Determine Max Cap of Participants - The number of participants may influence the objectives. For example, if your event is a large virtual event hosting hundreds of participants, you will want to write objectives that do not require program faculty to individually observe/grade each participant. And remember, at minimum, the faculty to participant ratio should be 1:25.

Gathering the Documentation

Create Participant Assessment - The participant assessment is highly individualized based on the learning objectives and will likely look different in each program The assessment should "match" the learning objectives or be in alignment with them. For example, if one of your learning objectives asks participants to “Explain….”, then the participant should either explain in writing or auditorily. An inappropriate assessment to this objective is to provide a multiple-choice quiz; this does not afford the opportunity for a participant to explain something.

Create Program Evaluation - A program evaluation measures the delivery and structure of your program as well as the program faculty and administrative components. The evaluations are to be used to make future program improvements.

Identify Qualified Program Faculty - Contact subject matter experts who have previous experience in the program content. Obtain a curriculum vitae or résumé to document their qualifications (*required documentation for the annual report).

Final To-Do Item

Enter program into the program directory at least 10 calendar days prior to the start of the event.

THINGS TO REMEMBER

Target Audience

The target audience must include Athletic Trainers. Programs must be intended for the credentialed health care or wellness provider. Programs with other credentialed health care participants are acceptable to create common knowledge across disciplines and promote interdisciplinary education but cannot require Athletic Trainers to be credentialed as a physician assistant, physical therapist, chiropractor, etc. to attend CE programs. Programs targeted at non-credentialed fitness or wellness professionals and lay persons – such as patients, parents, coaches, administrators or educators – do not meet BOC Approved Provider Standards.

Operations Manual

Every program is required to execute all BOC Approved Provider Standards. The operations manual contains such policies as copyright, conflict of interest, non-discrimination and cancellation/refunds, etc., which are part of “General Standard VI: Administration” from the Provider Standards. BOC Approved Providers are expected to not only create a policy manual with the minimum specified policies but are also expected to follow them accordingly. Please see our template as a guide.

The application process allows each organization to demonstrate the adherence of its CE practice to BOC Approved Provider Standards and Policies & Procedures. An organization must currently be developing and/or presenting a future Athletic Trainer CE program.

The BOC has several expectations of those applying to be a BOC Approved Provider:

Eligible organizations wanting to become a BOC Approved Provider must provide prepared program materials for a future CE program, demonstrating compliance with BOC Approved Provider Standards and Policies & Procedures
BOC Approved Providers must monitor all CE programs for compliance to Provider Standards and Policies & Procedures
Annual renewal is required to maintain elite BOC Approved Provider status and continue to provide CE to Athletic Trainers. Renewal consists of an annual renewal fee and annual report.

Tech Resources - Leveraging Technology

Whether you are creating face-to-face (F2F) or virtually, there are ways to simplify program development and implementation. Technology can ease your burden and do the heavy lifting. There are numerous technology solutions to help BOC Approved Providers streamline and increase efficiency of all program processes.

Virtual Synchronous Program

Most organizations have a subscription to some type of virtual meeting conference software such as Zoom, Cisco, Skype, or Go ToMeetings. These options are great for hosting synchronous programs and allow for individual interaction, whether that be in a group or private chat, breakout rooms, or simply conversing F2F in real-time (*check to make sure your platform does not have a participant cap limit if you intend on hosting hundreds or thousands of people). While program delivery is easy enough, the administrative logistics like: collecting a roster, disseminating continuing education (CE) certificates, disseminating participant assessments and program evaluations can be a bit more complicated. See below for some recommended tech resources for each of these items.

How do I collect a roster at a synchronous event?

https://www.campusgroups.com/product/virtual-attendance-tracking/

This tool allows people to track attendance at online events. Simply host an event as you normally would on Zoom or Go ToMeetings and post the QR code at the beginning and end of your event.

*This option DOES incur a cost.

Virtual Asynchronous Program

Allowing Athletic Trainers to complete CE on their own time allows for amazing learning flexibility but can create a logistical conundrum for providers. One of the most frequent questions is:

How can I host or deliver a recorded event?

There are various instructional options using a simple video recording. Most organizations can upload content to their website - a perfect place to host CE events for participant viewing. Otherwise, there are free resources like YouTube or Vimeo to host your video. Blog sites like Wordpress are also popular choices for hosting.

Some may turn to free Learning Management Systems (LMS) which allows for content hosting (i.e. like video recordings, articles, websites) and delivery of quizzes, surveys, and other assessments. Free LMS platforms that may work are Google Classroom, Schoology or Moodle.

How do I collect a roster or participant assessment in an asynchronous program?

Asynchronous programs can encounter logistical challenges similar to synchronous programs. A strategy to address such logistical challenges is to create an “end slide” in each program recording which contains links for participants to “check in” to a roster, complete the participant assessment and the program evaluation. Utilize clickable links that pop open in external windows allowing the recording to remain open in case a participant wishes to view something of interest again. See below for some particular tech recommendations to create these items.

FREE RESOURCES

Google Forms Add-on “Certify’em”: For creating a roster, participant assessment, and certificate.

*Yes, there really is a way to kill three birds with one stone.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dya_OE8EIQ

This option facilitates quiz set up as well as passing mark designation in Google forms. The system will automatically send a certificate to a participant who passes. The quiz in Google forms would be the participant assessment, while the roster is tracked via the Google spreadsheet, and a certificate is sent.

*Note: If you're using a regular Gmail account, Add-ons like Certify'em can only send up to 100 emails (certificates) per day.

Google Sheets Add-on “Autocrat”: For creating a roster and certificate.

Two birds, one stone.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1CoyA-Nitk

This option focuses on auto-generating a certificate for those who complete a Google form. Participants provide contact information (and Certification # if designated) and it auto-populates a certificate sending it to their email. A Google spreadsheet keeps a record of participants who were sent a certificate (i.e. your roster).

Another tool to consider for roster creation is Survey Monkey. A free plan allows you to create a survey with up to 10 questions. See here: https://help.surveymonkey.com/articles/en_US/kb/SurveyMonkey-Plans

Program Implementation

Checklist Overview

The below checklist will help you keep on track and in compliance with the "Standards for BOC Approved Providers" (Standards) and "Policies & Procedures for BOC Approved Providers" (Policies & Providers), and basic BOC Approved Provider responsibilities and expectations.

Pre-Program

Create program schedule and calculate continuing education units
Market your event
Create attendance roster
Create certificate (statement of credit)

During the Program

Distribute attendance roster
Declare conflicts of interest
Distribute participant assessments
Distribute program evaluations

Post-Program

Distribute certificates (statement of credit)
Review program evaluations
Provide feedback to program faculty
Conduct internal program review
Retain records (certificates, rosters, etc.)
Process complaints (if any)

Please click on the menu items in the left panel for a more detailed explanation of this checklist.

Pre-Program

Calculating CEUs

Continuing education units (CEUs) are based on contact hours. A contact hour is the time actually spent in the educational portion of the program. One contact hour equals 1 CEU (needs to be calculated to the nearest quarter hour).

Regardless of modality, whether delivering an event face-to-face or virtually, the CEUs are calculated based on “time on task”. For virtual events, estimate the active participation time, whether that’s reading, watching a video, or participating in program.

Market Your Event

Even though there are many ways to market your event to Athletic Trainer, it’s critical to complete the two required tasks of marketing your event as a BOC Approved Provider:

Upload program to the program directory - Must be completed at least 10 calendar days prior to the start date of the event.
Create promotional materials - Whichever promotional materials you develop for your program, the following items must be included (see sample flyer):

Learning objectives
Schedule and format
Program faculty credentials
Cancellation/refund policy
Number of contact hours/CEUs that will be available
Fee(s)
Sponsors
Required materials and equipment

*When advertising your BOC Approved Provider status, use the BOC Approved Provider seal, which can be found on the “Resources” page in your BOC360 profile with guidelines for use, in addition to the below statement:

(Company Name) is approved by the Board of Certification, Inc. to offer continuing education (CE) to Certified Athletic Trainers.

Create Attendance Roster for Distribution

BOC Approved Providers must maintain a participant roster for each CE program. This can be a simple sign in/out sheet at a face-to-face event or a digital version for virtual events.

Create Certificate (Statement of Credit)

Each participant must receive documentation at the conclusion of a program that verifies program completion. The program certificate, whether digital or print, must include the following (see sample):

Participant name
Program title
BOC Approved Provider name
Completion date
BOC Approved Provider seal
Number of contact hours/CEUs
BOC Approved Provider continuing education statement

During the Program

Declare Conflicts of Interest

BOC Approved Providers, program faculty and sponsors must declare any potential or actual conflicts of interest and financial gain associated with programs, presenters or providers. It is suggested BOC Approved Providers include a disclosure slide at the beginning of each presentation.

Distribute Participant Assessments and Program Evaluations

For face-to-face events, a simple paper delivery method is simplest. For virtual events, there are a variety of ways to disseminate and collect assessments and evaluations. Technology recommendations can be found on the Tech Resources section.

Post-Program

Distribute Certificates (Statements of Credit)

Certificates serve as verification that a participant completed the program and achieved a passing score on the formal participant assessment. A certificate should be provided to each attendee who signed in, completed the program, and successfully completed the participant assessment at an acceptable score.

Review Program Evaluations

Program organizers must review program evaluation feedback submitted by participants. BOC Approved Providers should utilize questions that center upon behavioral statements that they can change and respond to. Data collected through these types of questions enable BOC Approved Providers to make improvements to future programs.

Provide Feedback to Program Faculty

Program faculty must be informed of feedback to help improve their teaching and learning methods, as well as to determine presentation quality and effectiveness. Share results from the completed program evaluation forms.

Conduct Internal Program Review

BOC Approved Providers should conduct an independent or internal review no less than annually to determine the effectiveness of a program.

Retain Records

Information must be made readily available to the BOC upon request when it is necessary to verify an Athletic Trainer’s participation in a program or to provide a replacement certificate to attendees. Requests are usually made in the form of an audit, investigation, or annual report. BOC Approved Providers are not required to submit materials to the BOC immediately after each event, but should retain records for five years.

Process Complaints

Any concerns or complaints raised by Athletic Trainers should be addressed by the BOC Approved Provider. Complaints received by the BOC will be investigated and the BOC will notify the BOC Approved Provider of such complaints and will follow with an investigation protocol.
