Interested in Becoming a Sponsor?


NJ Cannabis Certified is constantly receiving inquiries about scholarships or grants that might be available for individuals that cannot afford tuition.

We are currently seeking sponsors that would help low income individuals apply for full or partial tuition scholarships. Scholarships can be flexible and tailored to the sponsors potential employment needs.

NJ Cannabis Certified seeks to match job candidates with organizations and Alternative Treatment Centers within New Jersey that are hiring. Our graduates have the basic skills needed to get started in the industry. Sponsoring an individual in need is one way for companies to give back within the cannabis industry.

Whether you are an existing Alternative Treatment Center looking to give back, or a company looking to gain a foothold in an ancillary cannabis industry, sponsoring a individual’s education serves both the company and the individual and makes for a better workforce.
