The goal of this class is to help you understand the industry and the medication which will help boost your resume with the knowledge you need to speak intelligently when you land that interview for an opening at a dispensary in the near future. For those with no legal experience to put on a resume, training increases your chances of getting a job in the medical marijuana industry! On average, a Marijuana business owner gets over 200 resumes for every opening they post. With this training on your resume – you WILL stand out from the crowd! Many owners across the nation have taken our course, and they all agree – they will look for HempStaff trained employees first when interviewing for entry level dispensary employees – as they know our course gives them the cannabis knowledge to help them succeed.  Certainly not every business owner has heard of us, but all owners can agree that some training is better than no training.  Our course is there to help people get in the cannabis industry by giving them knowledge to get interviewed and speak intelligently during their interview, and we have done this hundreds of cannabis employees nationwide. On Nov 8th, 2016 Florida passed a FULL Medical Marijuana program with Amendment 2, in addition to the existing Compassionate Care Act (Low THC) and the new Terminal Illness Law (allows THC use for those with less than 6 months to live). On June 9th, 2017 the Florida legislature approved 2 Bills, later signed by Gov. Scott. These bills outlaw smoking, but do allow vaping and edibles, although currently there is a lawsuit spearheaded by John Morgan to allow smoking as he intended in the Amendment 2 language. Currently there are 14 companies licensed by the state to cultivate medical cannabis. The law allows up to 520 dispensaries to open at anytime across the state of Florida, as each cultivator can currently open up to 30 dispensaries! By law, the state still has to issue another 8 licenses, bringing the total cultivators to 22 and maximum number of dispensaries to 660! They will add another cultivator and each cultivator can add 5 more dispensaries for every 100,000 patient milestone.

Some states call it a Budtender, Dispensary Agent, Compassion Care Technician or Patient Liaison.

They are the product specialists whose main responsibility is to be a product specialist. This person must be trained to work with cardholders and help educate patients on how cannabis can alleviate some of their medical symptoms. Dispensary agents must be able to not only work with cardholders on the products that may work best but also how to use these products and what the appropriate dosages should be. After passing the cannabis training for Florida marijuana dispensary jobs , HempStaff offers you a resume review to help you get your document looking the best that it can before you start sending it out for posted positions.
