With 23 states now allowing some form of medical marijuana program, the industry is in need of workers. But because marijuana has been illegal for decades (and still is illegal federally) there can be a lack of qualified workers to support the field. The industry is trying to change that. The Cannabis Integrity Authority (the other CIA) has created a pilot certification program – a test you’d take to prove you understand pot 101. CIA – working with various industry groups and experts – ran a sample course and certification to test the curriculum in October in New York. Here are 5 questions from their sample test.
