Seeing Profits, Companies Invest in Cannabis Education

As the cannabis industry grows across the nation, so has the call for education and certification programs — and more universities and organizations are profiting from the opportunity.

Triumph Higher Education Group (Triumph) of Schaumburg, IL, a global education technology organization and provider of online education programs, announced the acquisition of Medical Marijuana 411 (MM411), the leading online resource for professional medical cannabis education and certification.

Triumph’s acquisition of MM411 comes as medical cannabis is approved for use in 37 states. MM411 is an approved provider of cannabis education programs in U.S. states that require certifications for medical and industry professionals. MM411 works closely with international central governments, U.S. state governments, medical providers, health systems, pharmacies and other distribution operations to educate, certify and manage the credentials of professionals who work in the regulated industry.

“Medical Marijuana 411 is a true pioneer in online medical cannabis education and certification,” said Jack Larson, Triumph’s founder.

With a concentration on patient safety, MM411 certifications cover areas such as federal and state marijuana laws, science, endocannabinoid system, approved conditions, safe handling, dispensary customer service, how to use various product methods, and dosing. To date, more than 9,000 medical professionals from 20 different countries have taken MM411 courses.
