Expanding on its popular workforce cannabis training program, Kalamazoo Valley Community College today announced that it will offer an online medical cannabis education course.
Through a unique partnership with Medical Cannabis Mentor, a leader in online medical cannabis education, Kalamazoo Valley will offer Cannabis Therapeutics 2022, an in-depth, foundational self-paced course for healthcare providers, dispensary personnel and patients. Kalamazoo Valley is Medical Cannabis Mentor’s first community college partner.
“Through conversations with community members and patients, we learned there was a lack of formal and easily accessible education for understanding the various therapeutic components of cannabis,” said Craig Jbara, vice president for strategic and business development at Kalamazoo Valley. “We believe it is important to promote accurate information and, if appropriate, provide an opportunity for improved quality of life in our community.”
The college will begin offering the self-paced, online training starting today, Oct. 24. The certificate program costs $299 and should take between eight to 10 hours to complete.
“There is so much confusion about what medical cannabis is and how to use it,” said Medical Cannabis Mentor Founder and CEO Joe Dolce. “That’s why our mission is ‘Education Before Medication.’ The goal is to separate myth from fact and to bring professionals and patients up to speed quickly. Our materials are based on the latest research and data from the world’s leading scientists and clinicians.”
After the successful completion of the virtual training units, participants will earn a certificate of completion from Kalamazoo Valley Community College and Medical Cannabis Mentors.
Medical Cannabis Mentor online programs are evidence-based and have been vetted and approved by healthcare professions and health agencies, such as New York’s Department of Health.
