This often puts dispensary workers in a position where they are making suggestions with little knowledge of how a particular product might benefit or harm a customer. Most dispensary workers have no training or experience beyond sales. Customers must have access to knowledgeable dispensary staff who can discuss the ways in which cannabis constituents and products can be used safely and effectively. By the end of this course, dispensary workers will be able to describe the anatomy and physiology of the cannabis plant. Additionally, course participants will be able to interpret Certificates of Analysis to assist patients in selecting the most appropriate products for their specific conditions. ![Scientist chemist working in lab to cannabis research](https://3296056.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/3296056/iStock-1008741688.jpg) More and more patients are turning to medicinal cannabis as a safe and effective alternative to traditional pharmaceuticals. As such, understanding the scientific basis for the efficacy of various cannabis products is essential for dispensary associates. ## Program Details ![Duration Icon](https://3296056.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/3296056/Copy%20of%20Cost%20Icon%20(1).png) DURATION 8 weeks, 5-6 hours a week ![Copy of Cost Icon](https://3296056.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/3296056/Copy%20of%20Cost%20Icon.png) FORM Fully online, take this course from anywhere ![Cost Icon](https://3296056.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/3296056/Cost%20Icon.png) COST $2,500, installments payments available ![Calendar Icon](https://3296056.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/3296056/Calendar%20Icon.png) Start Date Enrollments begin every two weeks - Course Overview - Program Modules - Job Titles - Skills - Learning Objectives Course OverviewProgram ModulesJob TitlesSkillsLearning Objectives ### Course Overview This program is carefully designed to aid cannabis dispensary associates in gaining knowledge on the various aspects of Medicinal Cannabis Science through interactive activities, videos, quizzes, and real-life scenarios.   ### Program Modules **Module 1** – The History and Overview of the Cannabis Plant **Module 2** - The Endocannabinoid System **Module 3** - Terpenes and Other Non-cannabinoid Constituents **Module 4** - Methods of Administration **Module 5** - Medical Cannabis Recommendation for Inflammation  **Module 6** - Medical Cannabis Recommendation for Chronic Pain **Module 7** - Medical Cannabis Recommendation for Epilepsy, MS, ALS, and Parkinson’s Disease **Module 8** - Medical Cannabis Recommendation for Cancer, HIV/AIDS, Anorexia/Cachexia, PTSD, and Anxiety ### What Jobs Relate to this Course?
