​

Kansas HOSA STARS is a recognition program to recognize dedicated Kansas HOSA members to both HOSA and their communities by striving to become more prepared future health professionals. The new recognition program, named the HOSA Stars Program, revolves around the HOSA core values (Lead, Learn, Serve, Innovation) with an additional category of dedication. In each of the five categories, there are several activities that Kansas HOSA members can participate in to earn points towards this recognition program. Three tiers of recognition will be available at the Spring Leadership Conference: Bronze, Silver, and Gold. Below are the requirements for each tier:

  • Bronze: 20 points in each category (at least 10 points in 'Innovation')

  • Silver: 30 points in each category (at least 15 points in 'Innovation')

  • Gold: 45 points (at least 25 points in 'Innovation')

 

To be recognized for a specific tier, all categories must have reached the minimum requirement of that tier. For instance, if you have 30 points in all categories, except you have only 10 points in 'Innovation,' you will be awarded the Bronze recognition. 

 

Alongside the individual recognitions, there are also chances for chapter recognitions. Chapter members can work together and engage in community-wide activities in a group to earn points for a chapter.

 

All activities and points must be submitted before the Spring Leadership Conference occurs.
