HOSA Canada Registration
Students must purchase a membership to be eligible to participate in HOSA competitions and attend workshops. As a member, students will get access to study materials for the competitive event in which they have registered to compete as well as US HOSA’s benefits, which include scholarships, summer research program opportunities, and more.
The membership fee also goes towards covering the cost of organizing monthly workshops/seminars and both the Fall and Spring Leadership Conferences.
Registration Instructions
For the 2024-2025 academic year, all students must register as part of a School Chapter or Community Chapter. A list of registered chapters will be published on our registration website for you to verify. If you are unsure if your school has a chapter, reach out to your school’s administration or email us at info@hosacanada.org.
If your school does not have a chapter, you can create a new chapter. To form a new chapter, you need a minimum of five registered students and a teacher advisor. Chapter registration will be on our new registration website.
The Chapter President or Teacher Advisor must create a chapter account before individual students can register. To create a chapter account, follow the instructions on this website. Once students are invited to the platform by the Chapter President or Teacher Advisor, they can follow these instructions for payment and event selection information.
The registration platform will be updated to support team events shortly.
Community Chapters: It is highly preferred that students register as part of a school chapter. If this is not possible, the creation of a community chapter must be approved by HOSA Canada. For approval or inquiries regarding community chapters, please email info@hosacanada.org.
