Career Advancement

Since the inception of the regulated cannabis industry, one of its most enticing aspects has been the potential for professionals to learn, develop, and advance within their own companies. After all, the prevailing belief was that internal promotions were plentiful in this ever-evolving field. However, when we reached out to our vast network of cannabis professionals to gauge their perspectives on upward mobility, we were astounded by the response. Nearly 200 individuals candidly shared that they believed the only path to a promotion was by leaving their current organization.

At first glance, this number may seem alarmingly high for an industry that has long emphasized the value of loyalty. Yet, the truth may be even bleaker than anticipated. In fact, a staggering 74% of respondents revealed that they had only obtained their current roles through internal hires within their organizations. This sobering statistic underscores the prevailing trend that internal promotions may not be as prevalent as we once assumed.

But fear not, dear cannabis professionals, for Vangst Learn is here to revolutionize your career trajectory. Say goodbye to feeling trapped in a cycle of lateral moves or job hopping just to advance. With our groundbreaking educational platform, we empower you to acquire the skills and knowledge necessary to rise within your own company.

So What Does This Mean for Current Cannabis Professionals?

At Vangst, we believe in delving deep into the trends that shape the cannabis industry. That's why we decided to take a closer look at the factors behind the disconnect between perception and practice. Armed with this determination, we conducted a comprehensive poll to uncover the root cause of this inconsistency.

In our quest for answers, we asked individuals to identify the most crucial skills for cannabis job seekers. The results were eye-opening. Shockingly, 22% of professionals surveyed reported that they believed cannabis knowledge was the most vital skill. However, an even more alarming finding emerged: 36% of these very professionals admitted to never having received formal cannabis training themselves.

This glaring disparity sheds light on a fundamental issue within the industry. While companies stress the importance of acquiring new skills and knowledge, many fail to provide the necessary training on relevant topics. Consequently, professionals find themselves hindered in their ascent up the corporate ladder, unable to reach their full potential. But fear not, for Vangst Learn is here to bridge this educational gap and propel you to new heights. We're committed to equipping cannabis professionals like you with the knowledge and expertise necessary to excel in this ever-evolving industry. Our comprehensive micro-training video courses will empower you to unlock the skills that truly matter, setting you apart from the competition.
