Step Up to a New Career: Become a Holistic Cannabis Practitioner
The practitioner training program about how to get better client results with medical cannabis, while growing your business.
Step Up to a New Career in Holistic Cannabis Education: Become a Holistic Wellness Practitioner!
If you’re looking to enhance your practice & healing skills when working with patients with inflammation, chronic pain, anxiety, insomnia, and many other health conditions, our signature practitioner program is for you.
As clinicians, we know that many of our clients are stuck. They get better, but are not completely back to their former selves. When people get to this plateau point, they go online & consult Dr. Google. Unless they’ve been living under a rock, it’s only a matter of time before they learn something about the healing powers of cannabis. This is where things can go awry.
We know that you care about your clients. We’ll show you another way – a way that helps your patients AND you – by building your reputation!
These skills will not only boost your confidence working with your clients, but will help you develop a specialty for your practice creating a culture where
- Clients feel understood & refer you to their friends & family
- You have a reputation as a progressive practitioner
- Medical marijuana doctors refer their patients to you for specific plans
Imagine a practice where clients are eager to work with you & doctors refer to you regularly.
This 31-module online training program is a mix of audio & video presentations with slides plus patient education handouts & practitioner resources for a turnkey experience.
We promise that your knowledge will expand, your confidence will grow & you’ll complete the program with a toolbox of resources that you’ll be excited to share with your clients.
Why We Embarked on this Journey to Educate Others about Holistic Cannabis Education
The integrity of what we provide our customers rests squarely on who we are – holistic-minded health practitioners, first & foremost. While other cannabis education programs are available, most are produced by business people who have little or no hands-on patient experience. We are our target audience – health & wellness professionals committed to holistic healing.
We’re also seasoned educators & communications experts. We know how to dissect studies & translate findings. We know how to develop curricula that’s timely & practical. Let us do the heavy lifting so you can sit back & enjoy the learning curve.
We know what’s like to personally hit a healing wall. Laura has a daughter with a developmental delay who was at a plateau. It was frustrating to say the least. Donna received the diagnosis that every woman dreads – breast cancer. Once each of them included cannabis in their healthcare plans, things started changing – for the better & forever!
We knew that we had to help other clinicians gain the knowledge about cannabis & build their practices.
