GENERAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Medical Marijuana ID Card Application Process: Once a patient has been diagnosed by a qualified ordering physician and entered into the Medical Marijuana Use Registry, they can immediately begin the identification card application process.
The department encourages applicants to complete the process online as this
decreases processing time. Patients receive an email from OMMU once their email is added to the registry by their qualified ordering physician which directs them to the application.
Once an application is reviewed and approved, patients receive an approval email which can be used to fill an order at an approved MMTC while they await their physical card.
Medical Marijuana Use Registry: All orders for medical marijuana are recorded and dispensed via the Medical Marijuana Use Registry. The Medical Marijuana Use Registry is accessible online, with real-time information to ordering physicians, law enforcement, and medical marijuana treatment center staff.
Patients and caregivers may also access the Medical Marijuana Use Registry to submit a Medical Marijuana Use Registry Identification
Card application, and check the status of their application.

I saw the billboard and decided to stop in for a tour today out of curiosity….WOW. What this group of people are doing here is beyond words. I’ve lived in the Apopka area for many years and I’m used to seeing abandoned farms. In just six months what they have managed to turn this property into is amazing. The girl that runs their operations was so bubbly and welcoming. Full of great information. Max did a great job on my tour. I honestly have no intentions of doing the classes, but based on my tour, I would highly recommend. Great way to spend my Sunday afternoon.

Having personally attended several other well known schools for cannabis, I will be the first to tell you that they were not close to what I learned at Learn Sativa. I would only refer to this institution as the true cannabis college of the industry. I met the most amazing people in my class, including all the staff members. Every person there was always so helpful with whatever questions I had. I’ve attended several green carpet events since and have met even more wonderful alumni. Can’t wait for next months extractions course!

What more can I say. I am blown away with Learn Sativa. My month learning here was more than I could have imagined. My instructors were knowledgeable on all aspects of cannabis. Fantastic job with making learning fun so that it was not overwhelming. And trust me, you learn A LOT. I contemplated taking this class for so long and I am really glad I did. Everyone from registration through completion were beyond helpful, two thumbs up 👍👍. I have friends who went to other schools and didn’t learn half what I did here. Will be returning for advanced courses!

Which is saying a lot because the states website is hard to navigate to find any info for any laws or info in general lol. The administrative personnel are really nice and helpful. I’m very proud of what I’ve accomplished finishing this class and I can’t wait to help people with what I have Learned.

Learn Sativa University❣️ Thank you so much❣️I truly had an awesome and memorable hands-on learning experience. The class was fun and exciting.

If your looking to have a job in the industry it’s perfect for you but IMO if your looking to open a business in industry I would just jump right into advanced classes. Basic class is focused more on being an employee. Pat does a great job at keeping everyone on track and covers a lot of material in a short period of time. The class was a little misleading I thought it would be alot more hands on focus on growing. Would appreciate more hands on training in lab than having to study slides and watch videos at home but overall great experience and I gained some knowledge in the history of the business.
Amber Simon
18:00 23 Feb 20
Highly Recommend this course!!! The enthusiasm and passion that Pat has for this industry is amazing! I didn’t have much knowledge whatsoever and this course breaks the information down to have even the most novice individual very knowledgeable to work in the industry. I’m excited to enroll in the advanced business course.

It’s super sketchy looking at first. But once you get in their you understand. Learned so much from pat l was able to help people close to me in my life by taking the knowledge from this school and telling them what medicine they need with success. 10/10 take a class

Unbelievable amount of knowledge and hands on experience! I’ve never been happier with a choice to go to school for something especially being cannabis! Highly recommend.

Einstein said, “We’re all ignorant..just in different subjects.” In saying that, I came into the Dispensary Management Course with 2 years of knowledge based FYI of my own research. This course is designed for anyone no matter your experience level in cultivating, growing, or dispensing cannabis medicine. The course fee is a small price to pay for the current world knowledge you receive in just 4 short weeks. I graduated today, taking away more insider information to add to my dossier and cannabis culture knowledge. Thanks to Pat & Chris, for making the approach to the industry on a “crawl before you can walk” level for anyone. Everyone at LSU is down to earth, genuine in their desire to educate those willing to put forth the time, effort and capacity to want to slice their piece of the 52.5 Billion pie!

Just received the BEST education on cannabis thanks to Learn Sativa University. I was skeptical at first, but that instantly went away as soon the class started. To meet and learn from people who feel as strongly as I do about cannabis was refreshing. The experience was very informative and professional, and I’d recommend this course to anyone who is interested. I’m excited to apply everything I learned today, and I just want to thank everyone who is a part of Learn Sativa University; it’s people like you that are going to help make an impact in this industry. I’m grateful to have been able to have the opportunity to meet you guys, and look forward to crossing paths again in the near future!

Great school! You can see the passion the staff/teachers have, they break things down to allow even some with some prior knowledge to understand how to do things right and with dispensary etiquette.

Wow! If you want to learn everything cannabis, this is the place to do it. The staff and instructors are professional, knowledgeable, kind, and sharp. The course was worth every penny, if not more. They are on the forefront of this field. Awareness and education is power, and needed to eliminate the stigma that marijuana became.

This is a great place to learn everything basic about dispensary training, beginner cultivation information, Cannabis culture and industry standards and practices. There are more advanced levels of education available as well. Taught by experienced professionals with insider knowledge and advice to enter the industry.

Just completed the Dispensary Management Course at Learn Sativa University.I am glad to say that I was very pleased with the immense degree of knowledge provided to us. Having covered an enormous amount of material, I now feel empowered to pursue this field in depth with a renewed sense of confidence at a professional level. Our trainers Pat and Chris both possess a pleasant and down to earth nature which allowed us to ask whatever questions came to mind. Their combined extensive knowledge and experience in the subject was definitely impressive, and their commitment to establishing a high standard of integrity and compassion stands out at in all aspects. There was no question they could not answer or address. After completing this course I am now interested in pursuing this field at a more advanced level.I will definitely be pursuing their more advanced courses in the near future .Another positive aspect of this University is their commitment towards assisting the graduate with networking and locating recognised employment opportunities both local and nationwide .I would recommend this to anyone who has an interest in pursuing this field at a professional level. You will NOT be disappointed ! Thanks again Pat and Chris for a great course and look forward to returning to the campus very soon.Brad from Tampa, Fl.

As most people, I was skeptical about this school. After spending 9 hours today at the hands on class, I could NOT be more impressed. Everyone was extremely professional. All the reviews are spot on. 5 stars all the way. TONS of knowledge packed into one day. If you want to start in the legal cannabis industry, you’d be silly not to go here. They also have a job board and job fairs all the time to help place you after giving you all the knowledge you need to succeed no matter if you’re a budtender, manager or even grower.

These guys are real and professional! I can’t explain how appreciative I am for this course. I’ll be coming back to learn some of the advanced courses!

This course exceeded my expectations on so many levels! The instructors, the set-up, the knowledge are all unmatched. And the connections that the University has with the big name dispensaries are real! If you want to find a job in the Cannabis industry this is where you start! By the time our Dispensary Mgt course was over there were so many hugs and everyone was routing for each other. The University will help you with your resume and will assist you in all aspects of the process. What an amazing opportunity, thank you to Patrick and all the amazing staff at Learn Sativa University… you guys hold a special place in my heart!

I went to this school and wow! The class is easy for everyone to learn, the staff wants to ensure you learn everything there is to know for when it comes to the cannabis industry. Class is only once a week with the rest being online. They’ll stick their neck out to help you get a job in the field but you have to put forth the effort.

Knowing about Cannabis and LEARNING about cannabis is totally different. You will learn so much that you will wonder why more people who want change are not taking this class. Maybe it’s because they have no idea that this University exists . I drove 3 hrs just to make sure I took advantage of this opportunity. Instructors make it so easy to understand and hands on classes make these complicated YouTube videos much easier than it seems. Plus… Chris will make sure you really relax while learning how this class is worth investing your time, effort in acquiring the knowledge to be on top of the Cannabis industry.

The knowledge I’ve gained through both the basic course and advanced grow courses at the Orlando campus are priceless. instead of trying to learn from 10,000 different web pages, videos and opinions, the entire LSU team has organized the material into a simplified step by step process that then branches out to more technical aspects of the industry with great learning tools like hands on labs. I’m absolutely ecstatic someone is spreading this knowledge, and I hope it only GROWS from here. thank you all again.

Patrick seemingly knows everything there is to know. about the industry. I learned a lot when it came to the plant itself. Lots of technical knowledge and hands on learning. There’s so much information out there and Learn Sativa makes it easily available and accessible.

Absolutely fantastic class! Tons of information, everything you could want to know about the industry you learn here. I did the one day course and it was a ton of information(hands on and lecture) that’s presented in a way that’s easy to digest and most of all is fun. If this is the industry you want to be in this school is an absolute must! I’ll definitely be back for more!

Just finished the 8 hour crash course in Orlando. Couldn’t have asked for anymore information than I received. This was so informative and fun at the same time and you really learn about the medical marijuana industry in a legitimized way. Everything about this class is 5 stars and if you don’t sign up for it you’re missing out on opportunities of a life time and making history. So confident in everything I learned.
