Jushi and Green Flower Collaborating with University to Expand The MA Cannabis Industry With This Scholarship Opportunity

WORCESTER, MA, UNITED STATES, August 1, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — Jushi, one of the cannabis industry’s leading brands, is collaborating with Green Flower and one of the top schools in the U.S. to offer a scholarship opportunity to local students for industry-leading online cannabis education certificate programs.

“We are thrilled that Jushi and Worcester Polytechnic Institute are working together with us to offer online cannabis education programs to support the training and development of potential future employees in such an impactful way,” said Max Simon, Green Flower CEO. “The knowledge and skills students gain through these programs positively impacts their careers in the months and years ahead.”

Jushi is offering one scholarship for Worcester Polytechnic Institute’s online cannabis education programs. The recipient of the scholarship can enroll in any one of the four available cannabis programs at the university.

This is a full scholarship, and the student will also have an opportunity to connect with someone at the company who funded their scholarship to talk about their career goals and learn more about opportunities in their area of interest in the cannabis industry.

“Jushi is excited to partner with Green Flower and Worcester Polytechnic Institute to provide access to quality education for those interested in working in cannabis. While this is one of the fastest growing industries, those who come in with a clear understanding not only of the exciting opportunities, but the unique challenges in this fast-paced, ever evolving space are the most successful,” said Nichole Upshaw, Chief Retail and People Officer, Jushi. “Congratulations on your commitment to your education and we’re excited to see where it takes you!”

Applications for scholarships are open now through August 11, 2023, with scholarship awardees being chosen the week of August 14, 2023.

All applicants who do not receive a full scholarship will still be eligible for a $500 partial scholarship toward the cost of their chosen program. All scholarships must be claimed by August 21, 2023.
