Cannabis Pharmacy
Even with increasing legalization, there are still a number of misconceptions about medical cannabis. Different varieties of cannabis have different chemistries, which can produce a wide range of medicinal effects. Our Cannabis Pharmacy course describes how cannabis can be used as a medicine by exploring the anatomy of the plant, how it interacts with your Endocannabinoid system, and what diseases and disorders can possibly benefit from it. We’ll also explore proper dosage, storage, and varieties of cannabis.
Start Your Own Cannabis Business
The cannabis industry is currently one of the fastest growing markets in North America. Cannabis affects multiple parts of the economy such as manufacturing, tourism, farming, and retail. Since legalization is rapidly expanding and competition is growing fierce, many people are interested in learning how to start their own cannabis-related business. Our Start Your Own Cannabis Business course introduces you to the current landscape of legalization, medical marijuana, and the cannabis market. We’ll then explore how to plan, fund, license, and start up your shop.
Cannabis Laws and Policies
The laws and policies that regulate cannabis cultivation, sale, and its uses are constantly evolving. Cannabis is still federally illegal, but the landscape is rapidly progressing towards the acceptance of cannabis for medical and recreational uses. Although still hotly debated, there is much evidence that shows the benefits of using cannabis to treat various disorders, diseases, and illnesses. Our Cannabis Laws and Policies course describes the current political landscape, federal laws vs. state laws, financial and tax implications, as well as the future of cannabis legalization.
