Aurora Cannabis Looking to Crown Canada’s Top Legal Market Budtender

The pursuit of cannabis knowledge is a journey. To become a Cannabis Master requires passion, dedication, and a true commitment to the plant itself.
Known across this great land as “Budtenders” “Budmasters” “Cannabis Experts” “Cannasseurs” “Cannabis Specialists” and even more creative titles, we respect and admire them all!
Based on the program parameters, applicants hoping to take the title of Canada's top Budtender will be tested using challenges like timed product trivia, terpene identification, joint rolling, and more, to reach the finals of this national cannabis competition.
According to the program details, “the top 10 finalists will then be evaluated on customer service and cannabis education during a secret mystery shop.”
Delta 9 is very confident in all of its Cannabis Specialists at all of our retail stores. We believe in their ability to deliver a great customer experience with informed knowledge about all of the individual cannabis strains, products and brands that we offer to our customers.
