Lake Superior State University in Sault Ste. Marie, MI, will be offering an online Cannabis Production certificate beginning in fall 2020. The certificate combines courses from cannabis chemistry and cannabis business in a one-year certificate with a limited lab residency. The residency will be for a one-week period beginning in the summer 2021 on Lake Superior State University’s campus in the Cannabis Center of Excellence.

The Cannabis Center of Excellence houses more than $2 million in cutting edge/state-of-the-art analytical instrumentation and extraction equipment. The Center works closely with partners in the cannabis industry to provide training and certification in the most current industrial protocols and methodologies of the cannabis industry.

The Cannabis Production certificate consists of coursework in Cannabis Chemistry, Cannabis Plant Sample Prep, Cannabis Production, Cannabis Business, and Cannabis Law and Policy. The program set-up is unique for cannabis education programs and will prepare graduates for immediate employment in the cannabis market.

“I am very proud of the work that has been done by staying on the cutting edge of cannabis education,” says Dr. Rodney S. Hanley, President of Lake Superior State University. “We strive to create a superior education for our students through our innovative programs, and our new Cannabis Production program is one of these outstanding programs.”
