CHARLESTON, W.Va (WDTV) - The WV DHHR, Office of Medical Cannabis (OMC) is offering an online course that will teach a basic understanding of operating a licensed medical cannabis business while following the West Virginia Medical Cannabis Act.

Every principal and employee involved in the growing, processing or distribution of medical cannabis must complete the two-hour online course approved by OMC, according to the DHHR. The course is only available online, no paper option of the course is available.
“Industry training is an essential step in making medical cannabis products available to West Virginians with serious medical conditions,” said Jason Frame, director of the Office of Medical Cannabis. “We continue to work toward the goal of providing eligible state residents with the ability to safely access medical cannabis as quickly as possible.”
The DHHR says that course participants will be educated in West Virginia medical cannabis law, rules and policies, as well as how to recognize and report unauthorized activity, proper handling of medical cannabis, proper record keeping, prevention and detection of the diversion of medical cannabis, transportation, dispensing, emergency preparedness procedures, chemical handling, inventory control systems, storage, security, reporting requirements and health and safety considerations.
