  • The marijuana training programs at Cannabis Training University can be paid for with many different currencies. The currencies are converted into USD after sign-up but will show on your bank statement in the currency you used to pay.

  • You can begin your program as soon as you register and pay. You will receive a welcome email from CTU with direction on how to get started.

  • The price on the website is in USD. When you add the program to the shopping cart, the price converts to the currency that is used in your location. For example, USD is converted to CAD if you sign up from Canada. You can sign up at CTU no matter where you live and what currency you use.

  • We do not offer a payment plan at this time. But right now it is only $249.99.
