WHY SHOULD YOU COMPETE?

HOSA competition is a great opportunity for members to explore medical fields, interact with other members and achieve recognition for their work. There are many different types of events, ranging from Knowledge Tests to Public Service Announcement videos. You can check the national HOSA website, which has detailed descriptions of all of the competitive events. ​
HOSA has given me a way to grow and learn as an individual through competitions and various volunteering events. Competition has taught me a lot: leadership & teamwork skills and most importantly to have fun!" -Kimberly Pham (HOSA Competitor 2022-2023)
