Starting this fall, the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine is offering the first-ever certificate program specializing in medical marijuana.
The three-semester class promises to teach health care professionals the basics of medical cannabis, so they can begin to use it in their practice.
"We thought it was important for health care professionals to have objective information about medical marijuana," says school President Jack Miller.
Miller says part of the program's purpose is to help dispel some of the myths surrounding medical marijuana.
