Education & Publication

The Concussion Awareness Training Tool (CATT) is a series of online educational modules and resources with­ the goal of standardizing concussion recognition, diagnosis, treatment, and management. Good concussion management may decrease the risk of brain damage and potentially reduce long-term health issues.

Developed by Dr. Shelina Babul, Director of the BCIRPU, CATT is based upon the established principles of evidence-based research and resources, including:  

  • Consensus Statement on Concussion in Sport (2022)
  • Living Guideline for Concussion & Prolonged Symptoms for Adults over 18 years
  • Living Guideline for Pediatric Concussion Care
  • American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine Diagnostic Criteria for Mild Traumatic Brain Injury

Research and evidence on concussions is evolving and the knowledge base is continually changing. As a result, CATT is updated on a regular basis to provide current information, tools, and resources to support concussion recognition, diagnosis, treatment, and management.

There are 8 CATT online educational modules, and all are available free-of-charge.

  • CATT for Medical Professionals
  • CATT for Coaches
  • CATT for Parents and Caregivers
  • CATT for School Professionals
  • CATT for Athletes
