Extraction Processor Certification

Master the art and science of cannabis extraction with our Cannabis Extraction Processor Certification, the ultimate guide to transforming raw cannabis material into premium, high-quality products. Designed for processors aiming to refine their expertise, this certification covers every essential step, from preparing raw extracts to achieving a market-ready, pure distillate.

You’ll learn critical techniques such as winterization, filtration, decarboxylation, color remediation, and degumming—each serving a unique role in preparing the extract for distillation. These advanced methods provide the skills necessary to produce a final product that meets the highest industry standards.

The certification begins with foundational theory and hands-on equipment training. Under the guidance of our experienced trainers, your team will gain comprehensive knowledge of extraction machinery and lab safety protocols. Across multiple training days, we’ll guide you through setup, operation, troubleshooting, and maintenance of essential equipment, such as filtration systems, winterization stations, and decarboxylation stations.

Our team will demonstrate the function of each tool in the extraction process, from glassware and filtration media to advanced components like hydrocarbon inline color remediation chromatography (CRC) systems. This segment also includes in-depth instruction on the FP1 Cannabis Filter Press, an essential tool for high-volume filtration.

One of the most crucial steps in this certification is crystallization, an advanced technique for isolating cannabinoids. With two days of on-site training, you’ll understand both cooling and evaporative crystallization, learn about solvent systems, and perform hands-on crystallization under supervision. This section is customized to your production needs, ensuring that you use the appropriate method and hardware for maximum yield and purity.

Our program also includes a full course on distillation methods, tailored to your specific distillation apparatus. Whether you use a bench-scale short-path system or a commercial wiped-film unit, we’ll provide the expertise to operate these systems efficiently and safely. You’ll understand how each step in the preparation and distillation process contributes to the quality and potency of the final product, from the initial extract preparation to the finished distillate.

Certification in Cannabis Extraction Processing equips you with the specialized skills needed to succeed in the evolving cannabis industry. By the end of this course, your team will be prepared to create high-quality extracts, design unique formulations, and elevate your brand with products that stand out. Join us to gain the knowledge and hands-on experience that will help your operation flourish in the competitive world of cannabis processing.
