 Cannabis Academy opens in Plett | News Article

The Cheeba Cannabis Academy has opened its second in-person learning campus in Plettenberg Bay.

Students can gain an internationally recognised qualification through various courses that encompass wide-ranging education on diverse aspects of the emerging Cannabis industry from medical Cannabis to large-scale growing and marketing.

Cheeba Cannabis opened their first campus in the Vaal Triangle in February this year and to date over 200 students have qualified.

The campus is located in the scenic Bitou River area.

Cheeba Cannabis Academy will offer its signature three-month Cannabis Industry 101 course at the Plett campus, plus an additional month-long industry internship made possible through its recruitment partner 9th Wave.

The medical Cannabis content is delivered in partnership with Medical Marijuana 411 who is the world's leading provider of online medical Cannabis content and in addition to its international accreditation, Cheeba Cannabis Academy’s Cannabis Industry 101 course is also endorsed by both the University of Limpopo and Edupark.

Registration for the first intake of students at the Plett campus is now open and the inaugural course begins on 15 September 2021.

The curriculum covers growing from seed to harvest, medical Cannabis and Cannabis business, as well as sustainability and wellness. Students at the Plett campus will also get hands-on opportunities to learn how to grow Cannabis through aquaponic and hydroponic methodologies.

Student accommodation is available on campus for people from outer lying areas.

Course participants will benefit from an immersive learning experience that connects them to a wide network of responsible, progressive, and legal Cannabis operators ranging from doctors and health practitioners to Cannabis club managers and large-scale commercial growers.
