Our Curious About Cannabis workshop series is where the Curious About Cannabis brand was born! 

Now we have re-engineered our popular in-person workshop for a virtual environment to make this unique learning experience available to anyone with an internet connection and a desire to learn!


Limited cohort sizes means better discussions, better peer support, and better learning outcomes

We keep our cohort sizes relatively small (10 - 20 learners) because we find that this is the best way to ensure that each student gets the support they need so that they can make the most out of their time in the workshop. Smaller cohort sizes tends to lead to better class discussions, more engagement from each student, and more peer support, which overall results in a dramatic difference in experience for our students.


Our workshops are uniquely customized to your interests

We have designed this workshop series to ensure that each cohort experience is unique. While we do utilize a consistent curriculum with each workshop, we also stack on a layer of activities and projects that allow our cohort members to engage their own unique interests. As each person in the workshop learns, they share with everyone else, and we all learn together - creating an incredible feedback loop that maximizes learning outcomes.


Our workshops are challenging and rewarding

(literally - we give you rewards)

Curious About Cannabis workshops are intensive workshops (no joke!), intended to make attendees work hard to learn and demonstrate their newfound understanding to others. Each student will have the chance to work alongside scientists and industry experts to explore core concepts of Cannabis science. The course is graded and a passing score of 80% or better is required to receive a Certificate of Completion issued by Natural Learning Enterprises. 

Our workshop elements include:

  • Live Classroom Sessions (Virtual)
  • Guest Lectures from Leading Cannabis and Cannabinoid Science and Technology Experts
  • Interactive Hands-On Elements
  • Educational Videos
  • Homework Assignments
  • Research Projects
  • Quizzes and Examinations

With access to this workshop you will also receive:

  • A complimentary copy of the Curious About Cannabis book
