Independence statement

Who makes this course.

The SA Medical-Cannabis Short Course is written, assessed, and delivered by Demo Provider (Pty) Ltd. The authors write in their personal professional capacity.

No regulatory affiliation.

No medicines regulator, professional council, or accreditation body has commissioned, reviewed, endorsed, or approved this course unless that approval is expressly stated on this site, with the approving body and reference number. Where the course explains how a regulator or council works, it describes public rules from their published documents. It does not speak for them.

No commercial sponsorship.

No cannabis producer, distributor, laboratory, pharmacy group, or pharmaceutical company has funded, sponsored, or influenced the content. The course recommends no product by brand. Where a product class, dosage form, or test is discussed, it is discussed on the published evidence.

Evidence, not opinion.

Clinical statements are referenced to published sources. Regulatory statements are referenced to the public text they rely on. Where the evidence is thin or contested, the module says so.

Accreditation status.

Application for approval as a continuing-professional-development (CPD) activity is in progress. Until an approval is granted and named here, completing this course earns a certificate of completion issued by Demo Provider (Pty) Ltd and no CPD points.

Declarations.
