COMPETITIVE EVENTS

are designed to motivate HOSA members to improve their knowledge and skills. HOSA provides a national competitive events program as a means of recognizing those students who are willing to pursue excellence by preparing for competition and having the determination to attend a conference and participate in a competitive event.

FIND AN EVENT

HOSA has 6 different categories of events for members to participate in:

Health Science
Health Professions
Teamwork
Emergency Preparedness
Leadership
Recognition

List of events and their guidelines can be found here.

KNOW EXPECTATIONS

*Bracketed info is the logic that applies to states

Each event is uniquely designed with specific rules and regulations. Before registering for one, read through the guidelines thoroughly and know what is expected of you.
In order to compete at the regional level, you must be a paid, active member and you must complete the registration form by the given deadline. If you are one of top 3 in the region [states], you are eligible to compete at the State Leadership Conference [International Leadership Conference].

PREPARE

In our region and state, competitions are highly selective, and members begin preparing well in advance. You (and your teammates) should review the list of resources in the guideline and start studying as soon as possible.

Additionally, each event has specified attire, which is stated in the guidelines. Some events allow members to wear scrubs or other dress that is acceptable for that profession. Unless otherwise stated, members competing should be in official HOSA uniform; specifications are outlined below.

States 2026:

You are mandated to come to GBM #3 on March 31st, 7pm, at Matherly Hall 0119 for more logistics.

Registration is completed for this years cycle, please stayed tuned next Fall for registration :)

Good luck to all of our competitors!
