Course 2 -
To Dab or Not to Dab and Ask Max ($149)
Saturday December 2 at 2pm to 4pm
To Dab or Not to Dab: This class is all about cannabis concentrates, how they are made, how they are consumed, the qualitative and chemical differences between them. We cover kief, bubble, wax, shatter, live resin, rosin, hash oil, isolates, and distillates. Lastly, we discuss the differences between safe and potentially dangerous concentrates and dabbing.
An hour of ask Max is an incredible opportunity to ask a true industry expert all of your most complex and controversial cannabis questions. Max is very knowledgeable about cannabis US history, prohibition, legalization, hemp, horticulture, speciation, lab testing, quality control, products, extracts, working with patients, the future of the industry and so much more.
Course 3 - Responsible Vendor Certification (Now $149 instead of $179)
Sunday December 3 from 9:30am to 12:30pm
Responsible Vendor (RV) is great for dispensaries. RV teaches the best practices for a dispensary and sets a standard for operation procedures. A staff trained and certified in RV can prevent or minimize infractions and violations commonly issued by the enforcement agencies.
Value & Benefits of RV
1. Quality Training. Your staff will receive training on state laws, best practices, customer service, safety, product knowledge, cannabis chemistry, and more. Each staff member receives a Responsible Vendor Designated wallet ID card along with an in-class workbook they get to keep to retain the information.
2. Marketing and Advertising. With concern of product safety, and community safety, it is important to inform your community and new customers that you take this business seriously. After completing the program, your shop receives window decals and a certificate to let your customers know you are a Responsible Vendor Designated dispensary.
3. Protection for your dispensary. The Responsible Vendor Designation allows you to mitigate multiple levels of infractions.
This course comes with a custom blank student workbook with discussion questions and images of the presentation on each page.
Course 4 - Cannabis Products and Sales Training (Bud Certification) $249
Sunday December 3 at 2pm to 5pm
Cannabis Products & Sales Training (CPST) was written specifically for sales associates, by industry experts, in a way that everyone can understand. CPST uses certified medical science to inform sales representatives on tough topics such as time-to-effect for different forms of THC. CPST is a great course for those who are new to the cannabis industry and need to become more familiar with its products.
Value & Benefits of CPST
1. Quality Training. Your staff will receive training on all the cannabis products that exist on the market, how to use them, and how they work including accurate dosing, time to effect, product differences, and safe methods of consumption.
2. Increase Sales & Customer Loyalty. Staff properly trained in CPST will help your dispensary maximize revenue with increases in customer confidence and loyalty.
3. Decrease Risk. A CPST certification will help minimize the risk for your dispensary by empowering your sales representatives with the knowledge they need to safely dispense cannabis products. Your dispensary can avoid public health and safety issues with a CPST certification.
This course comes with a custom blank student workbook with discussion questions and images of the presentation on each page. It also includes Trichome pens, pins, and stickers.
