Six Weeks. Four Pillars.
One Transformation.
Four pillars across six weeks. Each builds on the last — foundations, methodology, real-world application, and practice integration.
Pillar 01
Weeks 1–2
The Scientific Foundation
Rewire and Rebuild
Your training taught you to see cannabis as a drug of abuse. That bias doesn’t disappear because you read a pharmacology module — it filters everything you learn through it. We start by dismantling the assumptions your education built and replacing them with the scientific foundation it never gave you: endocannabinoid system clinical pharmacology, cannabinoid and terpene science, product literacy, and the evidence that was excluded from your training — not because it didn’t exist, but because policy prevented it from reaching you.
Outcome: By the end of Week 1, you’ll understand exactly why you were never taught this.
Outcome: By the end of Week 2, you’ll look at a patient’s presenting concerns and know which compounds to reach for.
Pillar 02
Week 3
The Core Methodology
The Clinical Cannabis Consultation Framework
This is the core of the program — and the piece no other course, CME, or certificate in this space offers. A proprietary step-by-step clinical workflow mapped onto the pharmacological logic you already use. Patient assessment. Interaction screening. Product selection by cannabinoid and terpene profile aligned to the patient’s concerns and medication list. Dosing and titration. Follow-up. It’s repeatable. It’s structured. And you can deploy it with any patient on day one.
Outcome: By the end of Week 3, you’ll have produced a complete clinical recommendation for a real patient scenario — symptoms, medication list, interaction screening, product selection, dosing.
Pillar 03
Weeks 4–5
Real-World Clinical Mastery
Counsel With Confidence
This is where most cannabis education stops — and where most providers stall out. Real patients don’t fit neatly into frameworks. The pregnant patient asking about CBD. The geriatric patient on warfarin. The patient presenting with an adverse reaction you’ve never seen. The one who wants to replace their opioid prescription. We take you through the complexity layer — special populations, adverse effects, harm reduction, patient education, and the difficult conversations that separate a confident cannabis clinician from someone who just completed a CME.
Outcome: By the end of Week 5, there is no patient scenario that should make you freeze. You’ve handled the cases that scare most providers away from cannabis entirely.
Pillar 04
Week 6
Practice Integration & Professional Positioning
Operationalize and Lead
Competence without infrastructure is wasted potential. We help you build the professional framework to integrate cannabis into your clinical workflow permanently — state-specific legal boundaries, emerging reimbursement pathways, and the interprofessional positioning to become your practice’s cannabis authority. The complete Clinical Resource Toolkit ships this week.
Outcome: By the end of Week 6, you have a framework, a toolkit, and a concrete plan for your specific practice. You’re not someone who took a course. You’re the person your colleagues are going to come to.
What's Included
12 live virtual sessions (90 min each)
Not pre-recorded. Real-time instruction, clinical discussion, and direct access to ask your questions as they come up.
Every session recorded and permanently accessible
Review before a patient consultation, revisit a concept, or catch up on a session you missed.
Weekly compiled Q&A
Submit questions anytime. Every question answered and distributed to the full cohort as a permanent reference.
Complete Clinical Resource Toolkit
Drug interaction references, dosing templates, patient handouts, dispensary navigation tools, and state-specific legal materials. Delivered Week 6.
Mid-course clinical feedback session (1-on-1)
Dr. Dix observes you work through a case using the consultation framework and gives you individualized feedback while the program is still running.
Post-graduation implementation planning session (1-on-1)
Everything you’ve learned, mapped to your specific practice, your patients, your state. You leave with a concrete action plan.
The Difference
What makes CCM different from a CME.
A different category of training. Where CME ends — at the certificate — CCM begins.
The Standard CME
What you've taken before.
- ✕Pre-recorded modules and a quiz.
- ✕Information delivered in isolation.
- ✕Generic pharmacology you'll forget by next week.
- ✕A certificate for your wall.
- ✕No follow-up. No feedback. No accountability.

“Cannabis patients are patients. They deserve the same clinical rigor, the same evidence-based guidance, the same respect — as anyone else walking into a healthcare encounter.”
— Dr. Alexander Dix, PharmD
Built For
Who CCM is designed for.
If you're a licensed healthcare professional encountering cannabis patients in your practice — and you've felt the gap your training never closed — you're in the right place.
