Dear Colleagues,
Our biggest recruitment event of the year, the 2025 HOSA International Leadership Conference is scheduled for June 18-21, 2025 in Nashville, TN, and draws over 13,000 passionate students, advisors, health professionals, and alumni! Check out the guide for more detailed info. AACP will exhibit again as Pharmacy Is Right For Me, engaging future health professionals in fun activities such as a communal art project, a Pharmacy Passport scavenger hunt, an interactive poll, and more! And we want YOU, our pharmacy schools, to join us there to help spread the word about how versatile and fulfilling a career in pharmacy is. In the past, we have been joined by over 20 schools, making pharmacy one of the most well-represented health professions at the conference.
If interested, please submit a 2025 HOSA Expo Registration Form to register. The registration deadline for this year's conference is May 1. Questions about exhibiting can be directed to Karen Koeninger at karen.koeninger@hosa.org or 800-321-4672. Additionally, we encourage schools to submit presentation proposals to further engage students and showcase pharmacy education and careers.
**Please note that we will not be hosting our usual Pharmacy Island this year. Based on feedback from past exhibitors, we will not group pharmacy schools and programs in a central location. We will instead host a unifying activity-the Pharmacy Passport: Rx Marks The Spot-designed to encourage students to visit all pharmacy-related booths. We hope that this new format will allow schools to talk to more attendees and collect more leads. If there are any questions about this, please reach out to me at dstubbs@aacp.org. AACP staff will follow up with registrants with details after registration closes on May 1.
We look forward to seeing you in Nashville!
Thank you,
Danielle
