Students must accept their invitation from their Chapter President or Advisor, register, and pay their fee before October 31, 2025 at 11:59 PM ET to participate in the Fall Leadership Conference (FLC). This is not a qualifying conference and is meant as an opportunity for practice and to see where students stand amongst their peers. Students do not need to register again for the Spring Leadership Conference (SLC), as the registration fee includes both conferences.  

If students register after October 31, 2025 at 11:59 PM ET, they will not be able to participate in FLC, but can still participate in SLC and attend workshops throughout the year. The registration deadline for SLC is February 6, 2026 at 11:59 PM ET.

HOSA Canada offers refunds (less a $5 credit card administration fee) for the registration fee as long as you submit a request prior to the refund deadlines.

If you paid prior to the FLC 2025 registration deadline (October 31, 2025 at 11:59 PM ET), you cannot request a refund after this date.

If you paid after October 31, 2025 at 11:59 PM ET, you have until February 6, 2026 at 11:59 PM ET to request a refund.

Please note that if you attended two or more virtual seminars, you are ineligible to receive a refund, regardless of when you paid.

To request a refund, please ask your Chapter President or Advisor to remove you as a chapter member from their account. Once this is done, please send an email to info@hosacanada.org with your full name, school, and account username to initiate the refund process. Please note that you cannot request a refund on behalf of someone else.
