SellSafe Cannabis Staff Training program now available online

Alberta Gaming and Liquor Commission - Albertans anticipating a career in the recreational cannabis industry can now take the SellSafe Cannabis Staff Training program available online at sellsafe.aglc.ca. Upon completion of the program, individuals may then apply with the AGLC to become a Qualified Cannabis Worker (QCW) in the province of Alberta. Prior to legalization, individuals may meet the requirements to be a QCW but will not be formally approved to work in the industry until legally able to do so.

Proposed Alberta Cannabis Framework released

Government of Alberta - Albertans are invited to provide feedback on the government’s draft framework to manage cannabis legalization in the province. The Alberta Cannabis Framework proposes who will be able to buy and use cannabis once it is legal, where they will be able to buy it and where they will be allowed to use it.  The framework supports four policy priorities for legalization: keeping cannabis out of the hands of children, promoting public safety on roads, in workplaces and in public spaces, protecting public health and limiting the illicit market.
