"Welcome to Cannabis Retail 101! My name is Emma Chasen and I’m so excited to teach you how to be a great budtender. In this course, we’ll explore the budtender’s role, how to successfully connect with customers, key elements of cannabis science, the vast array of cannabis products and consumption methods, how to sell cannabis and navigate medical concerns, and ultimately how to guide your customer to responsibly integrate cannabis into their lifestyle. Budtending is about science, service, and human connection. I’m excited to share what I’ve learned with you."
OKO helped me gain the experience and knowledge to work doing what I love and consider to be my dream job. I appreciate how they went the extra mile to help me learn the true processes of how the Cannabis industry works. I was also lucky enough to be invited to one of their free in-person training sessions in Oklahoma City before being matched to my first job. Through the knowledge and training that I received from OKO and being matched with work I have now received a full-time job in the Cannabis industry and couldn’t be more excited! Mission complete.
