In The Rapidly Evolving World Of Cannabis

Newcomers and seasoned enthusiasts alike face the challenge of navigating an ever-expanding array of cannabis products and delivery methods, including flower, pre-rolls, concentrates, vape pens, edibles, drinks, and more. Unfortunately, most people can’t accurately convey how these products are made, what constitutes quality, or how each product type will uniquely affect you. This lack of knowledge can mislead customers, undermine trust, and compromise your growth in the industry.
The Ganjier Product Specialist is a cannabis products and connoisseurship training program designed to provide advanced knowledge of every cannabis product on the market today, a proven framework for how to assess the quality of those products, and a detailed understanding of how to properly consume those products for maximum effectiveness and enjoyment. This is also your first step towards becoming a Certified Ganjier, an official cannabis sommelier.

What is the difference between Ganjier Product Specialist and Certified Ganjier?

The Ganjier Product Specialist is a “master of cannabis products”. As such, the program focuses primarily on cannabis product knowledge, consumption, and an introduction to sensory based quality assessment. The Certified Ganjier is a “cannabis sommelier”, trained in the history, genetics, cultivation, sales, service, and the Systematic Assessment Protocol®. Accordingly, the Certified level of the Ganjier program provides a significantly deeper level of instruction including over 35 hours of online curriculum, 2-days of hands-on in person skills training in Humboldt with members of the Ganjier Council, and 3 rigorous in person exams.
