Facts and figures can be found on the Internet, and many new cannabis consultants pop up every day. Knowledge alone is not enough. Knowing how to apply the best business practices and understanding the political climate is vital to operating safely and successfully under California law. You will get a cannabis career advantage while receiving quality education with leaders in the industry at Oaksterdam University.

Oaksterdam provides quality training taught by real-world professionals. Courses are developed with the help of leaders from the cannabis movement and industry at-large. We have had over five thousand students through the doors of our "one room schoolhouses" in Oakland, Los Angeles, Michigan and now in the North Bay. You will receive education that can lead to a cannabis career and enhance personal success. Employers respect us. Since 2007, the faculty and staff of Oaksterdam University have explored many ways of bringing quality training to the cannabis industry. We have three permanent campus locations in California, and have special training seminars planned throughout the country. During our two-year anniversary in November, the main Oaksterdam University campus was relocated up the street to 1600 Broadway, adjacent to the historic Rotunda Building, built in 1912 and recently restored. Oaksterdam Media (OD Media) has an office inside for those interested in a full service advertising and media company. The "Old School" will stay in the Oaksterdam family, and be converted to house the headquarters for the Tax and Regulate Voter Initiative campaign. Eventually, this space will become a museum, chronicling the events and highlighting the people that have grown our movement into an industry. In addition to physically growing into a new building, we are expanding our Classic Curriculum to offer more specialized courses as well as new elective classes, available on an individual basis. The new program encompasses five new departments: Horticulture, Political Science, Biology (covering Medical Applications), Canna-Business, and Methods of Ingestion. These courses are considered non-credit courses, and are not transferable to other learning institutions. New Semester Courses are now being offered in our most popular subject: Horticulture. Expanded curriculum, new classes, labs for demonstration and a more comprehensive study of the specialty knowledge you have been asking for. We have also invited more Guest Speakers, who will be available to visit with during featured book signings. Your education with Oaksterdam University is an investment in yourself and your community. We can help you learn how to provide a return on your investment responsibly, legally and ethically. We are unparalleled in the industry as an institution of higher learning.
