Very informative course for beginners, who are not familiar with the cannabis plant, do not have a background in physiological causes of pain and pain control methods.

I learned a great deal. A few quizzes need to be re-examined, or perhaps there is an IT problem. These are on lesson 2 and 3 examinations.
