Student Reviews

As a long-time cannabis activist, and a passionate plant person my life has led me in a lot of interesting directions, I was fortunate to come across this course from 420 Organics. Many online courses in cannabis either contain a lot of false information or are taught by people not truly in love with the plant. These courses are different. First, they’re written by some amazing doctors with actual teaching degrees, and second, they’re actually passionate about cannabis science. This class is ahead of its time, and I think anyone wanting to make any sort of impact on the space whether it's a budtender or a master grower this is a must!!! Thanks 420 Organics for the amazing cannabis education.

By London

I recently graduated from university with a bachelor's degree in biological sciences and am hoping to get a position in the cannabis industry- preferably cultivation. I looked into many of the online courses that are offered, and this series of courses through 420 Organics offers content that will be useful for the type of position I am looking for. I especially like the self-paced nature of the online format, and the experience and passion the professors have for this incredible plant. I learrned so much, and even found out that some stuff I thought I knew was wrong! Thank you to Dr. Anna and the educators at 420 Organics for putting together such an informative series.

By Colin

I am a medical worker and have been interested for a while now about the benefits of cannabis and how patients might consume to help with various conditions. It seems like there is conflicting information about benefits and drawbacks of Cannabis in the media and even in the medical journals. Dr. Anna explained the endocannabinoid system (which was completely absent from all my nursing courses), cannabis medicine, and routes of administration, which gave me a really good overview of how  and why cannabis works in the body. I now feel confident in speaking about cannabis to patients who are interested and curious.
