You are in your second year as a TX-LAT and working as a contract athletic trainer for a rural HS in South Texas. On thursday of this week, you are contracted to cover a Jr. High football game, and told the visiting team will have an AT traveling with them so you do not need to worry about covering both teams. During the 3rd quarter of the game, a visiting team player is hit hard and stumbles off the field. You see the AT assist the player off the field.
Several minutes later the AT comes over to your sideline and introduces themselves as a student-athletic trainer and needs your assistance with the injured player. After you refer the injured to the ED for evaluation, you learn more from the student-AT that their school contracts with the local school to provide sports medicine coverage and that part of their apprenticeship hours are working independently & traveling with the Jr. High, which provides them “real-world experience”.
The university and the student-AT in this case are breaking which standard of conduct in this care scenario?

TX-LAT shall not aid or abet the practice of an unlicensed person
