Course Description

All retail owners and managers are required to take training in responsible sales of cannabis before a permit will be issued to allow sales of cannabis. Employees are required to take the training before starting their employment.

CannaSell SK certification is mandatory for the following full-time and part-time staff:

•  where cannabis is provided under the authority of a cannabis permit:
  • permitted premises owners, managers, supervisors, retailers, and cashiers;
  • security staff (directly employed or contracted by the permittee); and
  • owners and managers of a company contracted to provide security.
• where cannabis is being promoted by a registered cannabis representative:

All full-time and part-time workers employed in permitted retail cannabis stores must have CannaSell SK certification before they begin working in the store.

Cleaning staff in a permitted retail cannabis store do not have to be CannaSell SK-certified.
