Forms
Below are common forms used by families that involve the HCOS Finance Department as well as links to the pages that talk about how to use them.
1. Curriculum Order Form
The first step is to go to the Vendors page on the HCOS website to see if the vendor is on the Vendors Accepting HCOS PO Numbers list. Vendors on this list do not require a curriculum order form as you can contact them directly to make your curriculum purchase.
If the vendor is not on the Vendor page , the next step is to sign into Encom where an option on the tool bar called Curriculum Resources is available.

2. Recreational Program Form
New * Lessons through a City, District or Municipality recreation center MUST be purchased using the online recreational program order form.
Most of the other lesson/service providers WILL “invoice” (3rd party bill) HCOS for payment by cheque.
Some guidelines that may be helpful:
Many sports clubs (hockey, soccer, gymnastics, dance, etc.) are also willing to 3rd party bill as long as they are informed that there is a 3rd party (HCOS) potentially paying even a portion of the fees.
- Finally…regardless of whether paid by cheque or credit card the government requires that HCOS have criminal record check (CRC) confirmation/clearance before paying for any 3rd party lessons. Therefore, it is recommended that parents call the HCOS Head Office to make a quick check in our extensive database to make sure the lesson provider is “approved” or whether that process still needs to be completed.
