REGISTRATION NOTES FOR 2024-2025

• You must wait about 24 hours after registering with USA Hockey to register for your seminar.  Sometimes it is sooner, but the system needs time to process your registration and sync with the Courses system before it will find you.
• SafeSport – this is now a 12-month renewal period, not seasonal.  The Safe Sport courses do not show in the available, in progress, or completed courses tabs. They do not show in the dashboard after they are complete. Do not worry about not getting a physical certificate – the physical cert is not required.   Safe Sport reports to the records in the USA Hockey within 24 hours of completion.  Your profiles will not update the Safe Sport status at this time. The IT department is working on the programming to show a date of renewal instead of a season of renewal.
