HOSA’s competitive members took a two-day field trip to attend the 2025 Spring Leadership Conference. Held at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, members had the opportunity to compete in a health science/healthcare event of their choice, attend various workshops and seminars led by healthcare professionals, and meet HOSA members from all around the country.
This year, we have started a bi-weekly fundraising system to raise money for the chapter to engage in workshops, seminars, and fun experiences to make studying that much more fun.
Some exciting events we have planned for the future:
Trillium Hospital Day Trip
DNA Extraction Workshop
Make a Stethoscope
Glo-Germ Lab
