Original Record Date: October 30, 2018
Medications are prescribed to treat and alleviate conditions and symptoms, but may be banned in sport. The NCAA and NAIA understand there are certain scenarios where a student-athlete is required to take a banned medication.

Mark Bockelman, Chief Operating Officer, and Erika Kuhr, Senior Director of Sport Drug Testing, will share the important steps to take when submitting and appealing a medical exception/exemption. Participants will also partake in a collaborative Q&A, where our speakers will address questions related to medical exception/exemption policies and procedures.
