past survey results

In January of 2004, the National Council for Therapeutic Recreation Certification (NCTRC) conducted a random study of 2000 active certificants. The goal was to establish a profile of CTRSs who were employed full-time in TR. Below is a portion of their findings that pertain to annual income, salaries by service setting, and geographic location. Many members and non-members call the ATRA national office requesting information about salaries, and this study is an exciting new resource! The entire study’s findings are found on NCTRC’s website at: www.NCTRC.org, click on ‘News’, and then on ‘CTRS Profile Study’.
