North Carolina HOSA Membership Report 01 - 10

Start a HOSA Website for your chapter and compete in the Chapter Website Event.

Why a website and why this event?
This event is to help encourage HOSA chapters to share their chapter activities and professional learning through a chapter website. As HOSA continues to grow and technology becomes prevalent, local chapter websites can serve as a venue for those in a given community to stay up-to-date on what a local HOSA chapter is doing.

How will it get students involved?
Students are most likely the ones who will be able to update the website. You can create free websites with the following:

www.webs.com
www.yola.com
www.sites.google.com

High School and University HOSA Website examples:

http://butlerhosa.webs.com/ - David W. Butler High School http://eastforsythhosa.webs.com/Main Page/home.htm - East Forsyth High School
www.ecuhosa.org – East Carolina University HOSA
www.unchosa.org – University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
