Please read the following information carefully before reviewing the list of seminars. For full details, click here.
  • Level 1 seminar requirements have changed significantly for 2023-24. In summary, Level 1 officials MUST complete a virtual seminar scheduled through USA Hockey and an in-person seminar scheduled through WHOA. BOTH are required to complete the Level 1 registration process.
  • Level 2 seminar requirements have changed significantly for 2023-24. In summary, Level 2 officials MUST complete a virtual seminar - no ice session is required. WHOA is offering OPTIONAL ice sessions at limited locations for those Level 2 officials wishing to advance their skills.
  • If a date shows AM and PM there are two separate sessions. You need to attend only one session (either AM or PM). AM sessions begin with classroom from 9:00 AM to 10:30 AM and conclude with ice from 11:00 AM to 12:00 Noon. PM sessions begin with classroom from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM and conclude with ice from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM. All participants are dismissed at the conclusion of the ice session.
  • Participants must attend the entire seminar (virtual and on ground), NO EXCEPTIONS. Participants CANNOT leave early for practice, a game, or to officiate.
  • When a seminar is shown as full, additional participants will NOT be admitted at any time. If a slot opens, it is the responsibility of the participant to select the open slot. WHOA does NOT maintain a waiting list or notify individuals of open slots.
  • Seminar registration closes three days prior to the seminar day (i.e. registration for a Saturday seminar closes at 11:59 PM on the Tuesday prior). Registrations are not accepted after the close of registration under any circumstance.
  • Walk-up registrations on the day of the seminar are NOT permitted.
  • Minimum ice session equipment requirements for new, Level 1 officials are skates, helmet with half-shield, and whistle. All other ice session participants MUST wear full officiating equipment.
  • This page contains hyperlinks to classroom and rink locations for applicable seminars. To register for a seminar, click here. Seminar registrants must be 12 years of age on or before December 31, no exceptions. Zoom links are emailed on the day of the seminar, not less than one hour prior to the seminar start time.
