Cannabis Lighting Systems and Bulbs
Based on the detailed exploration of lighting technologies in horticulture, the certification course on Lighting Systems and Bulbs is designed to equip professionals with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively implement and manage lighting solutions in various indoor growing settings. This course goes beyond the basics, offering an in-depth analysis of the construction, operation, and optimal application of diverse lighting systems, including metal halide (MH), high-pressure sodium (HPS), conversion bulbs, mercury vapor lamps, fluorescent lamps, and compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs). Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of the technical specifications, such as lumen maintenance, life expectancy, and the role of ballasts and fixtures, essential for the successful cultivation of plants indoors.
The curriculum is structured to provide a solid foundation in the principles of plant lighting, highlighting the importance of light spectrum, intensity, and duration in plant growth and development. Through a blend of theoretical knowledge and practical application, learners will explore how different lighting technologies influence plant physiology, including vegetative growth and flowering, and how to leverage this knowledge to enhance crop yield and quality.
A key focus of the course is on energy efficiency and sustainability in indoor horticulture. Participants will be guided through the process of selecting the most suitable lighting systems for specific horticultural projects, considering factors such as energy consumption, heat output, and the specific light requirements of various plant species. The course also addresses the challenges and solutions related to the integration of lighting systems in controlled environment agriculture (CEA), including the management of heat, the optimization of light distribution, and the maintenance of ideal growing conditions.
This certification is ideal for horticulturists, agricultural technicians, greenhouse managers, and anyone involved in indoor farming or research who seeks to deepen their understanding of lighting technologies and their application in horticulture. Upon completion, participants will possess the practical skills and technical knowledge to make informed decisions about lighting systems, contributing to the efficiency, sustainability, and success of indoor growing operations.

Do you offer a free trial of your training?
How do I log in to access my training?
Are you an accredited education provider?
Yes! Yet… it VARIES so much. For example, we’re accredited by Alaska’s Marijuana Control Board to provide their “Marijuana Handler Permit,” Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation to provide their required “Responsible Vendor” compliance training, and others… see our “About Us” (click here) page for accreditations and memberships.
And 99% of our training applies to ANY country or jurisdiction (ex. Canada, Europe Australia, etc.) since our team publishes all our education “agnostically” (or “white-labeled”) so our eLearning solutions really apply to anyone that needs cannabis education… you must understand “English” (our “native language”) that’s really the only criterion to get started.
Our team is always creating new accredited curricula with our Subject Matter Experts who are industry professionals in their respective fields of study. The industry is still developing and there is no universal accreditation (ex. Department of Education, etc.), but we expect to see this change in the NEAR future and realize the vital role that accreditation plays.
Do you offer team training for my business?
How will your industry training help me?
- If you’re a “cannabis lover,“ this training will set you apart from others who merely have read information online or have no cannabis knowledge, it is specialized training that you want today and lovingly seek to learn more about cannabis.
- If you’re an industry professional, we can help set you apart from your peers and make you more valuable to your company. This is the surest way to get a raise or promotion that you likely already deserve (but don’t have a tangible reason to ask).
- If you provide ancillary services, our eLearning solutions are a tangible way to show that you understand and know the industry, which helps you attract better, higher-paying clients to bolster your revenue and make a “bottom-line” impact.
- If you’re a manager or business owner, this training is a great way to learn on-demand for yourself. We are your “Headquarters” (click here) and a great way to train team members so they’re up to speed on the latest trends and best practices.
Is it legal for me to take your training?
Do you meet legal accessibility requirements?
- United States: “American Disability Act” (Section 508) is required so that information and technology are accessible for anyone with disabilities.
- Canada: “Accessible Canada Act” aims to benefit all citizens, especially those individuals with disabilities, by helping to create barrier-free accessibility.
- Europe (EU): “European Accessibility Act” used by EU governments and universities, aims to improve cannabis trade and remove country-specific rules.
- Australia: “Disability Discrimination Act” applies to organizations developing online resources so there is no discrimination against people with disabilities.
- WCAG 2.0: Used when deciding how to present content for the best web accessibility, these guidelines are always followed when we develop any media.
- ATAG 2.0: Guidelines to construct content (as well as consuming online content) and help to improve the accessibility of the media that our team produces.
- ARIA 1.0: As many parts of the user interface are dynamic and interactive, we follow these recommendations to utilize assistive technologies (ex. screen-readers).

How can someone verify my training certificate(s)?
Easily! You or anyone can verify the authenticity of your certificate by going to the “Verify Certificate” tool (click here) using the unique code found on your certificate. Your certificates are assigned a unique code to VERIFY it in our Learning Management System (LMS) that way anyone can validate it by entering the custom code displayed to confirm its authenticity.
Remember, that you can always access your issued certificate(s) from your account in our LMS, under the “More” section (click here) in your profile. It is possible that you may complete several pieces of training – each with their OWN certificate – it would be time-consuming to visit every course to download all your certificates that have been issued.
To avoid this, on your profile, you can view all the certificates that have been issued to you. Go to your profile page under “Miscellaneous” and click on “My Certificates” which will take you to your ISSUED certificates and you can simply download them all at one (1) time.
