What is competition season all about?
Every member of HOSA has the opportunity to participate in one competitive event as well as recognition events every year. Each event is different, but some are centered around health knowledge, public speaking, the arts, and more. Wherever your passion is, there's an event for you! More information for specific years will come out as we get closer to the events.
For competitive events:
There are two levels of competition: State & Internationals. The top five are awarded, but in order to qualify for the next level of competition, the competitor must place in the top three.
For recognition events:
The awards for recognition events varies; some will get an award for earning a certain amount of points or service hours, while others may need to place in the top 10% for their event to gain recognition. Check the guidelines for more specifics.
