Certified Panelists Gain Paid Opportunities with Sensei Software Clients
IRVINE, Calif., Dec. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Abstrax, a leader in cannabis research and terpene innovation, has collaborated with Seed Talent to announce the launch of the Sensei Software and Training Program - an affordable 3-level certification program for cannabis enthusiasts who want to become paid sensory panelists across the US. This program, which is free to commence, is designed to empower individuals passionate about cannabis product development, by providing them with comprehensive aromatic training modules and connecting graduates with paid opportunities to evaluate products in their market and beyond.
This program aims to cultivate a specialized ecosystem of professionals trained in sensory analysis, a critical exercise in cannabis product development. Sensory panelists are trained professionals who use their olfactory senses to evaluate the quality, potency, and composition of cannabis products. Their expert analysis helps ensure product consistency and consumer satisfaction, which are vital as the industry grows and regulatory standards become more stringent.
The initiative aims to build a skilled community of sensory panelists who can offer expert analysis for product developers and innovators in the cannabis sector.
Key features of the program include:
- Comprehensive Training: Free access to courses on the Seed Talent platform (www.seedtalent.com), developed by industry experts including sensory psychologist Dr. Avery Gilbert and the research and development team at Abstrax.
- Paid Panel Opportunities: Certification qualifies learners to take part in paid sensory panels with clients of the Sensei Software, contributing to product development and quality assurance.
- Community Building: The partnership fosters a collaborative environment, encouraging professional development and networking among cannabis industry professionals.
"The goal is to lower the barriers to entry and create opportunities for passionate individuals to professionalize their interests," said Kevin Koby, CEO and Founder at Abstrax. "The collaboration with Seed Talent on the launch of Sensei supports a thriving ecosystem beneficial to all parties involved."
Participants can register at www.seedtalent.com, enroll in the free certification classes, complete the training at their own pace, and upon certification, access the marketplace for paid panel opportunities. It's free to access all three levels of the training through Seed Talent, the cannabis industry's leading employee enablement and training platform.
"At Seed, we're committed to transforming passion into professionalism in the cannabis industry," said Kurt Kaufmann, CEO of Seed Talent. "By partnering with Abstrax to launch Sensei Software, we're creating accessible pathways for individuals to hone their skills, connect with paid opportunities to provide input, and that contribution meaningfully advances cannabis product excellence creating a better industry for us all."
Additionally, Abstrax invites attendees of the upcoming MJ Biz Conference in Las Vegas to visit their Sensei Software booth (Booth #8601-30) to learn more about the certification program, experience product demonstrations, and network with industry experts.
