The Compliance and Risk Management program prepares learners to participate in the ever-changing compliance and risk landscape surrounding the cannabis industry. It has become increasingly difficult to approach cannabis from a compliance and risk standpoint as the federal government and individual states have implemented differing laws regarding its sale and usage. This program will tackle these issues by breaking down complicated legal terminology, highlighting important court cases, and explaining key regulations regarding business development within the cannabis industry.

In addition to providing a comprehensive overview of cannabis regulation, this course will also highlight the historical events that led to the formation of these laws. Students will explore legislation regarding the cannabis industry, common regulatory dilemmas, and the process of securing state and local licenses. As this course progresses, it will also introduce nuanced topics regarding professional responsibility, which includes contracting vendors, insurance, employment issues, corporate formation, and much more. Students will also explore environmental issues and will gain a greater understanding of the steps that business owners can take to reduce their impact on local habitats. Finally, this course will conclude by emphasizing how creators can protect their intellectual property within a constantly-evolving industry.

These extensive modules are designed to provide valuable information and insights that will educate learners of all levels on the complex world of cannabis regulation. This certificate also includes real world studies, assessments, and expert interviews that will ensure the learner’s mastery of the program material.

The Professional Development Institute is pleased to partner with Green-Flower to offer this program.
